Computer to TV

[Erich Newell]

If your TV has component in, I would guess that it also has HDMI or DVI? If
so, that is the obvious choice. If not, then you are looking at getting a
converter box.

I bought a Sony Wega a few years ago specifically because it had
DVI...nowadays you'll only find HDMI, but that can be used with a DVI to
HDMI adapter.
