So, I want to watch DVD movies on my 667 TiBook on a big 32" Sony TV. What cable do I buy to connect it? I don't think Apple supplied one. How much would this cost?

Also, I hear displaying your screen on a TV is easy/flawless but sometimes DVD playback is not so smooth?

Finally, do you have to restart before you attach/detach these cables. (force-quit won't cut it?)

thanks.

First, if your powerbook is the newer 667 DVI, see here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61598

Then see here for video output tips: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58620
