Default Your movie setup

So how do you watch movies at home?
I have a 5.1 dolby surround set on my computer. I want to have a good video-out cable from my PC to TV so I can watch the DVDs on a better screen.

Does anybody know if there is a S-Video calbe that ends in RGB??? If you know what I mean??

Video Card: S-Video---------------------------------RGB :TV


Yesterday I put my spiffy relaxed chair in the middle of the speakers and watched Bruce Almighty.

At home I just watch it on my TV with a pretty basic stereo system, nothing special. Here at school the only method I have to watch DVD's is on my computer and it works out alright. I watch VHS's on my little 12 inch TV/VCR combo...

I watch movies on a standard DVD player hooked up to a standard TV with built-in standard TV speakers. Nothing special or premium here and it doesn't bother me at all.

Home Theatre.. 49 inch flatscreen, 5.1 setup, the whole shebang.. often times I even game on it.

I can also watch movies from downstairs on my Xbox (which I like to do) on a 27-inch. This is where I do all gaming if not upstairs.

I also have my little Laptop that I use for a computer in my room. It's got a DVD drive, but I mostly download movies and watch them here at night with some really good headphones.
