What port can be used to connect two computers for data transfer?

Dvi port Edit- NOT DVI port. This is wrong in every sense of the word. DVI is used to transfer VISUAL DATA. For a monitor. You can't use it for I/O. Use an I/O port on legacy computers or a parallel port. Newer computers can use Firewire, 2-ended USB, or even an Ethernet port for computer-to-computer data transfer. I'm not in the habit of blanking answers, even if they're terribly wrong. Just so you know, agian DVI ports can't be used for I/O data transfers.

Yes there are video capture cards that support an external DVI monitor, But the whole point of a video capture card is so that the operating system can both control and use it.

What cable is required to connect an apple mac to a LCD TV?

Look at what output port you have. It could be DVI, Mini DVI, Micro DVI, or other. The Apple store website should help you decide. Then decide what connection to the TV you want. For RCA cables (like a playstation uses), Svideo or others, though those are the most common. I use a Mini-DVI (from my white apple Macbook, though the new aluminum ones are MicroDVI) to RCA connector, then plug an RCA cable from the connector to my TV. This only handles the video. Sound is seperate, I use a cable that plugs into my headphones jack and outputs RCA. It may be a good idea to talk to someone at your local apple store.
