    I have a couple of questions, first off, does the display port relay sound if you get a Display Port to HDMI adapter?
    And also, has anyone actually tried using the display port with an hdmi converter?
    thank you.

    Edit:
    I have a t520 with optimus.

    Yes, people have tried it on the T520. Yes, sound does get included in the converted HDMI-out as well, although some adapters don't seem to pass audio through. Read carefully, and confirm that someone has already successfully the adapter(s) you're looking at.
