Old school TV as monitor?

My 8 year old Dell laptop has a video out that will do composite or S-Video, depending on what plug I use.

There is no reason to use it with most computers today because unless it is an old tv studio quality CRT, any similar size $60 LCD will blow it away in resolution and you will pay about half that to convert any recent Mac digital output to S-video or component.

Mrs. Buzz's 10 year old XP laptop also has a S-video out to compliment its VGA out port... if/when its retired, and if we haven't gotten rid of the old TV, maybe something can happen there, but unfortunately that's not a realistic current option... just a humorous thought.
