What are the cables called so that that I can connect laptop to HDTV?

^ It's the only connection that is capable of sending high definition content.

The SONY Bravia HDTVs that I looked up only have HDMI and component video. Unless his has VGA, he may be out of luck.

My Sony has a VGA input. Most high definition televisions do.

ok so uhm what cable do I need? also can I watch an HD movie on my computer and will it play on my TV through the VGA cable? or does VGA not support High Definition? I know HDMI cables support HD...

 

[01001010]

VGA does support high definition. What's the length requirement of the cable?

10FT is good. or less. also I have another question whats the difference between VGA and S-Video? also another question what are the cables called all the way to the left the red white and yellow ones.. cause I have another TV (old tv) that only has those 3 inputs. i was thinking maybe I could use my laptop to watch stuff on the Old TV as well as this HDTV..
