Yeah. you can probably pick up an adapter at the local Radio Shack.

Depends if your pc is HDMI accesible if not then i think its an s-video cable you need. If it is HDMI accessible then you might wanna check if your tv is, and vice versa witht the s-video.

you can look on ebay or a local computer store and get a video card that has an s-video out on it, or even a video out ( cable type). they are cheap.
just to let you know, unless you have an lcd or plasma tv, then watching a computer screen on tv is not all that clear. its good to watch movies and so on, but not for typing.

Yes.
Get an adapter like this one:
VGA to S-Video / RCA Adaptor ($4.99)

FYI – connecting to a TV for viewing videos or playing games is okay, however, for viewing text the resolution will never be as good as a PC monitor.
