How do I connect my laptop using a HDMI cable? VGN AR21S?

Question

Hey I have a sony VGN AR21S and I am buying a new Panasonic Viera 32" 1080p with HDMI ports. I wanted to know how to connect my laptop to the tv using a HDMI cable as my laptop has a HDMI port? Also will the sound from my laptop be played in my TV? And will the TV screen be like a monitor in the sense that everything that normally will be shown on the laptop screen will now instead be displayed on the tv screen? Finally, my laptop supports blu ray; will I be able to play blu ray movies onto my tv screen?

Answer 1

you just need the cable.

yes it will play sound.

yes it is just like a monitor and everything on your laptops monitor will be shown on it or you can chose to have it as more desktop space. this will mean that you can have Microsoft Word on one screen and internet on the other.
