Hey i was wondering if it's possible to use a DVI (mbp's video slot) to RCA (red, white, and yellow plugs) cord such as this: http://www.amazon.com/DVI-I-RCA-Component-Cable-6ft/dp/B000Q6RL9Q

I really know jack shit about this, but we only have an old school TV at school with RCA input. Any help would be appreciated.

Just pick up a dvi to mini dvi (or whatever port your mac uses) and you are good to go.

no macbook has ever had or will ever have a dvi. they have mini dvi's if thats. They have many style a converter for this type of cable, its all about finding the right one.
