I've searched and searched this forum, so sorry if it's been asked a billion times and I'm just an idiot.
I recently purchased two monitors and I want to connect my macbook or my GF's macbook to them. I am a bit confused as to what I should use make this happen. The monitors come with VGA cables, but they also have two HDMI inputs. Now, I understand there is the mini display port to VGA/HDMI, but which is better or does it even matter? I've been looking around and reading reviews and it seems like every cable is a hit/miss, even the Apple versions. I know people tend to leave a review when they aren't happy, but I still am not sure which way to go. Does anyone have any experience with them?
Here are the monitors I purchased.
HP Pavilion 25xw 25-in IPS LED Backlit Monitor
