Keep in mind you don't need to use HDMI to get a high definition image. Through a VGA connection your can still send an HD signal. I'll probably be connecting to my new projector with a 1920x1080 resolution by converting my video card DVI output to VGA and then connecting that to the VGA port on the projector. So, don't think you're limited just because your computer doesn't have an HDMI output. VGA is fine, or if you have DVI out and the projector only has HDMI in, you can get a converter for that.
