Hi

I am looking to buy a laptop that I can plug a hdmi cable into in order to watch my downloaded films on our tv.

My question is when I'm looking on the pc world website what should I be looking for? When I look at the full specs I can't see an option that would mean this.

thanks

sarah

    Look for the "connectivity" or "video ouput" spec, which should say HDMI.

    If you have a recent TV, you should be able to use a VGA cable, which almost every laptop has, but that only carries video, not sound.
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
