How to Connect Your Laptop or PC to Your TV:
There are plenty of options for displaying your laptop on your HDTV, Many recent notebooks offer built-in HDMI outputs, and those that don't, typically have DVI ports (which can connect to HDMI ports through an adapter) or VGA ports (which can connect to PC ports found on most HDTVs).
HDMI/DVI/VGA connection can be video-only (a decreasingly common trend, but a possible one, especially if you use a DVI-to-HDMI adapter), you might need to use an audio patch cable to connect the notebook's audio to either the HDTV or a nearby set of speakers
It works well, but when you have a huge 40+-inch HDTV and home-theater setup a few feet away, consuming your media on a 15-inch laptop screen with tinny integrated speakers seems silly. Wouldn't it be great if you could pipe what's on your laptop screen to your HDTV, and treat it just like another monitor? And wouldn't accessing your collection of movies and music through your HDTV be awesome? Well, you can do both of those things, relatively easily, in a variety of ways.
