S-video cable that will connect from my computer’s video card to the TV video input.

Just don’t dread all us non cable folks. Many -like me- junked cable to cut expenses & discovered by happy accident the benefits of limited channel access. (I sure don’t miss folks screaming at me! And the occasional cable binge is now more of an event!)

It is VERY interesting learning about all the ways to meet tv & computer needs!

But if we are discussing a TV show in my office away from everyone else (no one was being “forced” to listen to anything) and said person makes a point of stepping in to espouse her personal philosophy on the evils of television, I’m sorry, but I find that a little hostile. I’m not saying anyone here would do that, but it has happened to me, and I frankly could not believe the chutzpah of the individual in question.

We have Comcast, don’t love it or hate it– but it’s pretty much met our needs for TV. What I do love is our 58″ HDTV (and our accompanying surround-sound system), which is only 2 inches thick, but still large & unwieldy enough to keep it from being an attractive target for flatscreen thieves (who mostly want the 42″ or smaller– portability is evidently an issue when one is trying to make one’s hasty escape). To each his own, and vive la difference!
