Hi,
I want to hook my T60P up to my plasma TV. It has an s-video connection and an RCA video input. Apparently the T60's don't support s-video. Is it as simple as buying a cable with a 15-pin monitor connection on one end and an RCA video connection on the other?

your plasma TV should have a VGA connector and if not then take it back (it sux ;) ) Anyways. get the port replicator or mini-dock or PCMCIA/Express DVI cards and a DVI to HDMI cable and you are all set.

Svideo on a plasma would suck anyways as Svideo is old and bad quality. Feed the Plasma the HD it so wants!

Thanks. I was hoping it would be a $20 solution...looks like a couple of hundred dollars instead. :(

well i did say you can use those pcmcia/express cards... as far as i know. They offer DVI. There's those VGA to DVI (HDMI) adapters too, you can just get one of those and you're all set.
