Did I make a good purchase?

Getting this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834115524

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834115506 I need HDMI for HTPC use but will not do much gaming, mainly wireless web use. I am about to pull the trigger but thought I would get your opinion before I go with it.

Any specific models, links?

I am looking for a laptop to play movies and connect to my TV. I currently have a CRT with a single RCA input (yellow) but will be getting a LCD/Plasma soon. I have read that HDMI is the best connection for the flat panel TVs but is it a must have? Also for connecting to my current TV, S...

Will the dual core processor be enough of an upgrade to be noticeable?

I thought I might have problems going dual core on my mobo?

I am wanting to spend about $60 or around there and need to know what I can go with and still be combatable with my mobo-ram. My rig is listed in my sig but here are some CPUZ info sheets. I was thinking about this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103037

Got everything working but my tv display is black and white. Any ideas?

A friend of mine brought over cable that came with his videocard. It is 7 pin to 4 pin adapter and I have a svideo to RCA adapter so that should take care of the video. I also got a 1/8 phono male to RCA female adapter that should work for the audio. Will be trying everything out tonight :)...

That looks great but my video card has the 7 pin S video connection. So a cable like this should do the trick right? http://www.svideo.com/7pinto3rca.html

It has a Radeon 9700 which has a connection that looks similar to Svideo but appears to be slightly different. It is a 7 pin connector... So I can buy a cable like this http://www.svideo.com/7pintorca.html Is that correct? That still won't give me any sound...so to get by I can just hook up...
