What does that have to do with anything? Chromecast isn't an HDMI port competitor...

Oh, come on. Chromecast is a way to display PC content on a TV. An HDMI cable allows you to display PC content on your TV.
Perhaps you mean't Chromecast doesn't compete very well with HDMI?

No, I meant that chromecast's value proposition isn't "if you don't have an HDMI port, you can use this to watch things!", so I don't understand the comment about Macs and HDMI ports. My computer has an HDMI port and I wouldn't dream of that making my chromecast redundant.
