Ive got a DVI port on my LCD which allows a resolution of 1280x768. Whats the cheapest/quickest/easiest way to connect it to that port in the TV? What would I need to buy?

Thanks

Nevermind, I had a spare DVI to DVI cable lying around and it works

But how can I get sound?? Do i need a cable going from the headphone jack in my Powerbook to the PC Sound socket in my TV?

Yes. If your TV has RCA phono jacks, you will need a mini-plug to RCA phono plugs cable. Some TVs have mini-plug jack, in which case mini-plug to mini-plug would work.
