How do you connect a computer to a tv if a computer doesn't have any output other than vga? I just got a new Acer Aspire M1640 and a fairly old CRT TV. The TV has the usual RCA, S-Video and SCART, but the computer only uses VGA. Is there anyway using converters and cables to somehow connect it?

That one has no S-video signal on the connector so you cannot use an el-cheapo convert cable. You need a proper converter, prices are slightly higher for that:
