Review on Benfei Gold-Plated HDMI to VGA Cable - 6 Feet with Power, Audio - Compatible for Computer, Laptop, Monitor, Projector, HDTV, Roku, Xbox, Raspberry Pi by Rud Starks

Many users of the new Macbook Air have reported problems when using an external monitor. After reading reviews of various adapters, I decided to use my Apple TV with an HDMI output to connect to an old VGA monitor. As long as you first connect the USB port to a power source to troubleshoot your Apple TV "Low Power HDMI" issue and confirm that your computer is connected to the Apple TV, you're good to go. I connected my Macbook to an Apple TV/monitor for several hours and the connection was solid with good quality video.
