I'm very poor with technology so try to cut me some slack...

I recently purchased an Element FLX 2211B TV http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Elem...07979/catOid/-12867/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

The TV says that it is PC compatible and it has a "PC/VGA in" outlet and a "PC Audio in" outlet. I'd like to know if there is an adapter i can purchase, or any way for that matter, that will allow me to connect my macbook to this TV. This is primarily for the purpose of playing videos.

Will this work?

If I'm mistaken, someone please correct me...

I thought that Apple included a "mini dvi -> vga adapter" with the MacBooks. I know they did with the PowerBook 12".

I bought the Mini DVI to VGA adaptor... what other cord do I need to plug it in? Do i need some sort of extension? There is no way to plug it in to the back of my TV.
