How would one get from HDMI to VGA most efficiently without losing too much quality? Yes, I understand that there would need to be a separate audio cable. I was thinking that an HDMI to DVI, which is still digital, attached to a VGA adapter would work, but I don't know. HP has an HDMI to VGA adapter for their Voodoo laptop, but I don't know if it works for all devices or is somehow specific to their devices.

HDMI is digital, component/vga is analog. you'll need to spend at least $100+ for a conversion module.

Yup, you need an active converter.

So no one thinks the HP adapter would work?
