Mac 'n' cables

    Hi there,

    In our office we have a new plasma screen tv with an S-Video connection but I don't know which cable to get for our mac books. We have a MacBook Pro and an iBook G4.

    I've been on their website and can't seem to locate one that'll fit the laptops (also computer jargon is lost on me!)

    I'd really appreciate any help.

    Thanks!

    Have the MacBooks not got a mini-DVI output? (EDIT: I see the Pro has the DVI output, and there is a DVI to S-Video cable available €19) Apple do a number of converters = Mini DVI to VGA, DVI or "S-video and Composite". Each connector costs €19
