Gray area here. If, and only if, your computer happens to be able to output an analog VGA signal through the HDMI port, then one of those HDMI to VGA adapter cables will work. But chances are your computer can only output a digital video signal through the HDMI output, in which case that adapter cable will be useless to you, and you'll need a HDMI-to-VGA transcoder BOX. I'm not sure if Best Buy sells them or not, but if they do I guarantee they will be very expensive. Best Buy tends to overcharge for things like that. Buying online would be your best bet here.
yes, the pcs in my moms school has ones like those. go to a shop and ask for an "HDMI to VGA adaptor" :)

I can't vouch for quality but a HDMI to VGA cable might do the trick: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B001OLCHJ6/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&redirect=true&condition=all Sorry, no Best Buy does not sell it.
