    That link doesn't work, but all ye need is a €19 cable from Apple (DVI -> S-Video). If in doubt, buy from your nearest Apple Authorised Reseller, as they'd be able to tell you exactly which cable you need.

    If you're living near Galway, I recommend Galmac Computers.

    Erm, this: http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/irl.woa/6364041/wo/hU6Wcb1LrVcg2fqA3GJzrDsmH2J/2.0.21.1.0.8.25.7.11.6.3

    Also, say I want to watch a movie, the TV is PAL, but the DivX is NTSC, is this a major problem? Do I have to convert to PAL to watch?

    Noo... we won't EVER be able to see those links, y'see? They're tied into *your* session :p But eh, if it says "DVI-to-S-video" & "for MBP" it must be alright.

    No idea on the NTSC DivX thing tho...

    No dont reckon it'll make any difference. Your Mac will play back the Divx file ok (once you have the Divx component installed) and then your TV will just mirror your mac's screen whether you play the file in a window or full screen (best). And then it might just be a case of setting the resolution output on the mac right once you have the adaptor connected and then setting the screen settings on your telly right ie 4:3 or 16:9 etc
