    Do you have to "beam" them - can you not take a video out of the PC and into the TV?

    But yes it can be done wirelessly.

    That depends on the capabilities of the TV and what you are trying to "beam" from!

    If for example you have a PC near to the TV with a graphics card and the TV has a matching input socket (e.g. the standard 15 pin VGA plug/socket) then it should be possible to connect the two.

    Depending on the TV, the quality will probably not be very good.

    once you hook it up you will most likely have to detect the TV on the laptop via the display options
    on mine it took a couple of goes for the display to show

    Or if you have a PS3 use it to just browse the internet on your large screen tv.......
