[QUOTE="#370157, post: 787127, member: 48024"] I've read numerous posts on different forums but can't find a definitive answer (I suppose there isn't one) but anyway, here goes.... I want to connect my black macbook (2.4Ghz 4GB RAM) to my Panasonic 37LZD800 Full HD (1080p) LCD TV. I have just bought a mini DVI to VGA adapter (haven't used it yet as I'm waiting for it to be delivered) but after exploring forums and online retailers found more options out there, including adapters that allow you to connect using HDMI. Basically I would like to know if it would be more beneficial to me to connect my macbook to my TV using HDMI or VGA. Is there a massive difference? I'm pretty sure from what I've read that VGA has a maximum resolution that is less than full HD (1,920 x 1,080) But I've also read that both methods are as good as each other :/ I'm confuzzled...any ideas? Edit: seen this on this forum, [URL='http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001MSI0TM/']Ex-Pro Premium Apple Mini DVI to HDMI female Splitter: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo[/url] are those any good? seems like the answer to me but wanted advice before I buy.
