I have a Macbook pro and an HDMI cable, but no HDMI port. What kind of converter do I need?
Something inexpensive would help. Also, if there are any other cords that go straight from a Mac to the TV that also happen to be pretty lengthy, please add references to those as well. Thanks!
By the way, the Mac does not have the HDMI port. The TV connects just fine to the cable I have.
