I am looking at purchasing a T500 Laptop. It has a DisplayPort adapter. I was hoping to use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable to hook it up to a TV with a HDMI input.
The description of the cable on Monoprice says this:
Note: While DisplayPort connectors are capable of passing an HDMI signal, DisplayPort and HDMI signals are basically different and not compatible with each other. In order for this cable to function properly, you must have a DisplayPort source device capable of producing and passing out an HDMI signal through the DisplayPort jack.
Will the laptop be able to output the proper signal? The chipset is ATI Mobility Radeon 3850.
