I'm think about moving my PC's out of the office and into the "storage/server" room next door so that basically each PC has only a monitor, keyboard and mouse in the office. I would need to use at least a 25 foot cable to do so. What I'm wondering is can this be done without experiencing any visual degradation in picture quality on the monitor. This of course would be done using high-quality DVI cables. I found this cable:http://www.comprehensiveinc.com/product.asp?category%5Fname=DVI+Cables&product%5Fi d=DVIDP%2DP%2D25DUHR

It claims: "virtually no loss over long cable runs" however I'm sure their definition of "virtually" varies from mine. So, does anyone have any experience hooking-up an LCD monitor using DVI cables 25 feet or longer? Thanks for any feedback on this.
