You can get a VGA to DVI cable if your TV has a DVI port. Also some TVs have a VGA port, so with a simple VGA cable you would be allset. Also you can search for PC to TV converters, they come in all type of ports even HDMI.

Haven't used one.

I will be in the market for one soon though. I just got my T61 and will need to connect it to my TV when basebal season starts next year so I can watch games from MLB.TV.

There are several threads on this issue. Search for TV out and search for S-Video in the T6x series forum. Be sure and tick the radio button: "Search for all terms".
