Is there anyway to connect my mdd powermac ati 900 pro to my tv via s-video and use my tv as another monitor???? i.e. watch video from mac on tv??

you would need a scan converter or another video card that has s-video out. Scan converters are anywhere from $100 to $200. A scan converter woul only allow you to mirror your display, a different video card would allow you to use your TV as a second monitor. TV quality is really bad though (fine if you're watching DVDs or other videos on your second monitor).

I have an 8500 in my mac and a 9000 in my pc. Both have s-video out. Maybe the mac edition 9000 pro doesn't have that? You're probably best off switching to a video card that does.

The Radeon 9000 on the Mac doesn't have S-Video (it has dual digital, though, which is all sorts of cool!).

But yeah, either yank the 9000 and put in a card with S-Video, or get a scan converter.
