Along with the two laptops in the house we also have an E Machine that is preloaded with XP. It does not have an HDMI slot and I am wondering if you can buy one to plug in. Again keeping it affordable.
Suggestions?

The only issue of course is that everytim we want to watch something we have to dragg her laptop over to the tv and plug it in. I would like a more permanent solution without breaking my bank account.

I would suggest a Sony PS3, it can pull video via UpNP protocol from any computer in the house as long as they're on the same network.

With HDMI I can run everything through my receiver. Bye bye cable!

I concur! I would gladly jetison my cable bill. Basic here, and not willing to pay more to have 2 more disireable channels along with the 20 or so that run the same programs.
