Do you want to watch broadcast HDTV on your laptop, or are you wanting to watch archived HDTV shows streaming from a site like Netflix? To use NetFlix, you don't need any special equipment but you do need to have a good broadband connection that can stream HD content. If you actually want to receive broadcast TV on your PC from an over the air broadcast using an antenna, you might consider a product similar to the TBS 5980 USB TV box with CI slot. This is a simple USB interface that allows you to use your PC as a television.

How do you connect vista to a tv?

Do you mean, how do I connect my computer to a TV? If that is what you mean, then its a pretty easy process. But you will need to spend some money. To connect a computer to a TV the easiest way, you will need to buy a S-Video cable. First, check if your computer has S-Video outputs and inputs. S-Video cables cost between 10 to 40 dollars depending on size and where it is bought. So, if your computer and TV have S-Video slots and you have bought the S-Video cable, you are ready for the next step. Once you get the S-Video cable, plug on end into the computer's S-Video slot and the other end in the TV's S-Video slot. Now whatever is seen on the computer will not be seen on the TV yet. First you will need to go on the computer and "output" the computer monitor onto the TV. To do this, you usually have to hold Fn + F5 or F4. Now on the TV, change the channel to TV/Video or change the source of the TV until you see the what is on the computer on the TV. I hope this has helped you understand what to do.
