Any way to link a computers DVD player to a TV?  


There are adaptors that will convert a VGA signal into an NTSC or PAL signal but they tend to be expensive.  It's more cost effective to purchase a video card that has a TV out.  Many of the ATi Radeon cards have SVideo outputs on them.  SVideo to composite converters are fairly inexpensive (i.e. around $10-$15US).

I went from a 15" to a 19" a few weeks ago.   When you get your new monitor, you'll wonder why you didn't upgrade ages ago!
