If the Macbook you're talking about is the MBP in your signature, then all you need is a miniDP - HDMI adapter. Make sure you get one that passes audio, as the 2011 MBP should pass audio over the miniDP port. If you're talking about an older Macbook, you probably need a miniDVI - HDMI adapter and a separate mini-jack audio cable. Then, on the TV, you would need an HDMI port that supports auxilliary audio.

To me, adapters are the way to go. It's not that big a deal to get a miniDVI and a miniDP adapter. PCs typically have HDMI built-in, so that's no biggie. Alternatively, you can wait for 10.8 Mountain Lion and get an aTV for Airplay mirroring.

That would be the easiest, although it wouldn't be compatible with PCs. How much is that USB/HDMI adapter? EDIT - I just checked on Amazon and the price was $50. The reviews seemed positive. There were a few Mac users that wrote reviews. Seems like it works fine. If you do get it, be sure to give a review on here so that others may benefit.
