Flat VGA cable

Is there such a thing as a flat VGA cable?

Sorting out an A/V multimedia room for work and I ideally wanted to dig a channel to hide the cables but I've been told it's a no-no.

Measuring around the room is 52' so am unsure if VGA is OK with this length.

I also need to run a 3.5mm audio cable with it.

Comments welcome.

IXOS once did a flat SCART cable made up of 75 ohm mini coax in a row, 9 I think, this would work, else just couple a load of mini coax (RG179?) together to make a flat package. Well a few mm anyway.

Keep hitting the wromg bloody button!!

I don't understand - how would this help get me a flat VGA cable?

Well you could acquire such a cable, snip the SCARTs off and connect (solder) to a VGA Dsub ; sounds like a lot of effort, to me.

No one said it was easy but the cable was available off the shelf :) So you wouldn't have the fun of killing a SCART. Any half decent dealer should be able to make a VGA lead from this for you.
