Macbook pro latest retina: Output to monitor with VGA I bought a new latest Mac book pro Retina. I see in my mac book, there are two ports: one for thunderbolt and one for HDMI (or HDMI, I don't know).

I want to output to monitor with VGA display, so I need a converter. As I know, there are two type of converters as I research: HDMI to VGA and Mini DisplayPort to VGA. So I have many questions because I don't sure about those port:


Does my mac have Mini DisplayPort ? I see in this link: Apple Support says that Mini DisplayPort and thunderbolt is comparable, right? So I can use Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter for thunderbolt port ?
Which adapter should I use for output to monitor. HDMI to VGA or Mini DisplayPort to VGA. If I can use both, which is better ? 
Macbook pro ships with HDMI or mini HDMI. I guess HDMI but I'm not sure.


I'm sorry for those questions because my lack of hardware knowledge. Thanks :)
You can connect the Thunderbolt port to a VGA adapter for your VGA monitor.
I'm pretty sure it does not matter. I'm not sure if a simple HDMI-to-VGA adapter even exists.
The Macbook Retina that I have has 2 thunderbolt ports and one normal-size HDMI port.
