Default Another connectivity question

You love these, can I do the following:-

(Source) HDMI -> DVI - > VGA (Projector)

I am thinking that I can but if anyone knows that would be great.

I know you can do HDMI to VGA but I don't know about the middle DVI step.

I'm currently using a DVI to HDMI converter to send the PC image to the telly so I'd imagine it's possible

HDMI carries a DVI signal, so all you need is an HDMI-DVI adapter cable for that part. Then you need the DVI-VGA convertor. However, if you want to mix in HDCP then it gets complicated. The only way I know how to do it is with an HD Fury. I have the DVI to VGA version, but the (more expensive) 2nd version is HDMI to VGA.
