  1. You have two options.  You can use the VGA connector (3 rows of ~5 pins), or the S-Video connector (circular connector with about 10 pins).  S-Video is probably the better option.

    Your TV is almost guaranteed to have a S-Video input.  S-Video cables come in all lengths.  S-Video is a video-only cable.  You'll need an additional cable for audio (unless you want to run sound out of your computer's speakers).  If you want to run audio from your computer to your TV, you'll need a "3.5mm Stereo Plug to RCA Plug Y-Cable".  You might be able to find one at Best Buy.  You'll definitely find one online.

    The cables will cost you about $6 each for basic quality.  It'll cost a little more for hi-fidelity or long length.
