displaying PC on TV help   
Hi,

I'm looking for a way to display my PC on a TV to watch movies and such.  My 
laptop has an s-video output which I currently use to connect to the TV via 
scart.  I've just got a base unit for a desktop PC which doesn't have this 
feature.  Can anyone advise me on the cheapest way to achieve this?  I've 
been looking at some graphics cards on ebuyer but can't see anything with an 
s-video output and don't really know the technical terms I'd be looking at 
to achieve this.  Any help would be appreciated!

Regards,

Chris

Just look for ones with TV out. There are a few at http://tinyurl.com/2hrh66
starting from £20 with VGA, DVI and S video.
