So I bought a PS3 recently, and I would like to hook it up to my computer monitor (which has dvi and vga inputs). Since I already have my computer plugged into the dvi port, I want to plug the ps3 in to my vga port. I know that hdmi and DVI are interchangeable, but I was looking for cables which can convert hdmi to vga (should be simple, right? The only cable I could find was this one:

First Question: Will it work?
Second Question: If not, is there a cheap DVI splitter that I could use to switch between my monitor DVI input and the PS3 DVI input?
Third Question: If no to both of those, should I just get a hdmi -> vga adapter and plug my computer in to the vga port and use the dvi port for my ps3?


Thanks!!
