Mac Forums

i want to be able to connect my mac to a tv and be able to see the computer screen on the tv, preferably for watching movies. what type of cable would be needed to do so? in case there isn't one for mac, which one will be needed for a pc. also, when i connect my pc laptop to my xbox 360 via USB cable, i am able to use windows media player and view all the media from my computer through the xbox. Is there any way i can stream the computer screen to the tv through the xbox? thnx
