Answer
You need to check the connector on your monitor. If it's DVI, you need a Mini DVI to DVI adapter. If it's VGA, you need Mini DVI to VGA. Then you just plug a regular (DVI or VGA, depending on which you need) cable to the adapter and the monitor.

Answer
they have about the same quality just because your converting mini dvi to hdmi, dvi dosn't make it any better its just another way to connect it to your monitor or HD-TV, on the other hand VGA is going backwards ur downgrading the signal it still a really good pic thou

Answer
I assume you are talking about the 3 RCA connectors at the front of the TV (one yellow, one red and one white). If this is the case then you will need to get the Mini DVI to VIDEO adapter. You will then need to get an RCA cable to go from the adapter to the TV (available at any electronics store).
If you want audio through the TV then you will need to get a 3.5mm to RCA cable (to go from the headphone jack to the red and white RCA connectors, also available everywhere).
Just a warning, the quality of the image will be significantly reduced when connecting via his method. If your TV has s-video you might like to try that, it uses the same adapter and has slightly improved picture quality.- Answered by Wayne J from Cranbourne
