I used to be in the business of installing audio/video gear 20+ years ago. But I haven't been buying gear very much beyond a personal device here and there pretty much since.
I need an adapter, pronto, asap; so I want to buy it from a retailer in NYC if possible. I need a Fullsized DisplayPort to HDMI adapter (not "Mini" DisplayPort, which appears to be sold everywhere), to adapt the video out of my HP 8740w to a flatscreen.
I've checked the websites for BestBuy, B&H, Adorama and J&R. And everything they have is a Mini DisplayPort; I need the full-fat DisplayPort (B&H website seems to say it has 1 full-sized adapter out of the flood of Mini DP adapters; but the picture looks like a Mini DP). Does anyone know of another place I can look in NYC for it? Just a name, I'll check the website or phone them.
Thanx.
I remember for example there was a street in midtown filled with electronic retailers that had every type of cabling someone might ever want. But either the NYC landscape changed drastically, or I just can't locate where all those places are now; looking on Google maps I can't locate which street in midtown it was. Anyone know?
But I don't really care where the place is in NYC, or a short subway ride just outside of manhattan.
Thanx again,
