Gary, To get your Apple TV going, you could move the HDMI cable from your cable box to your Apple TV. That should work. You probably don't want to do that in the long run, though, as those connectes may not stand up to that kind of frequent connecting and disconnecting. As someone else

Hi to all. Last Friday lightning struck my home and wiped out nearly all my media equipment, including my high spec PC and my Toshiba laptop. I will need to replace those and as audio is my main concern I would like to ask the group; in your opinion, which laptop, or laptop manufacturer produces

In my admitedly limited experience, most laptops use nearly equivalent sound chips. The main difference is the speakers. And since you'll be using external speakers, it shouldn't really matter which laptop you get. I'd forget about the sound chip and concentrate on the other specs. I personally
