Any of you dawgs know how to hook a laptop up to the television? I've got a relatively new flatscreen, so I'm sure there's a way to do it.

I don't think I've ever been to a homecoming game. Even when I was in school there. Shitty opponent, 3/4 or less crowd. No interest imo. And
that's before you take into account how shitty our football team is this year! Going to check it out on ESPN 360 I guess.

Not spending another dime on this shitty team. Not sure about your laptop question....go up to best buy and ask one of those nerds (Tech grads) imo

All I think you need is a HDMI cable!

I think so... not absolutely positive... because I think all the HDMI cable does is run video and in order to have sound from your computer to TV you need and
audio cord... which is either the red or yellow or white I can't ever remember..

I don't think you'll need to worry about an audio card if you use HDMI.

I think that the HDMI covers it!

I'm not going back any more this season. I had a decent time before the Florida game, but the trip down there, and rushing back on Sunday sucked ass. I
think I'll take the boat out tomorrow and see what kind of trouble I can get into rather than waste my time going to Athens and see the Dawgs eek out a win
over cocksucker tech.

I use a DVI to HDMI cable to hook mine up to the TV. The I have an audio adapter that I plug into the headphone port on the laptop and the other end plugs into
my Onkyo receiver for audio. Pretty sweet setup. Looks something like this.

The PPV was showing video of the teams warming up and the stands were practically empty! |
