    Get the MotoGP pass via the website. 100€ but worth it. I wake up Sunday morning, pipe the laptop feed into the big TV, watch everything (MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3) at my leisure, full race, full everything.

    Can you educate me on "pipe the laptop feed into the big TV"? I have no problem paying for the season pass if I can do this.

    what kind of a TV and what kind of a laptop do you have? year and model number please.

    there are different ways(2-3) of connecting a computer/laptop to a TV. it depends on the outlets/ports available on your devices.

    no s-video on the laptop, but there is one on the DVD recorder/player that is hooked up to the TV via component video connection.

    Re: Rossi a little more comfortable

    I think it`ll be easier to buy a conversion box than trying out different cables.

    this seems to be good - Amazon.com: Sewell PC to TV (VGA to RCA) Converter w/ All-in-One Cable: Electronics ...but I have never used one of them and cant vouch for any make or model. usually, I go by the reviews on amazon.com, they are pretty helpful.

    Don't buy the adapter from Mac--it sucks and works for about 1 week...you can buy cheap ones on ebay for about 1/6th the cost...I just got 2 and they work fine!!

    you may be able to do the remote monitor port (theres a cable for that) but you might not even get MotoGp in HD with that laptop....

    Comcast doesn't carry Speed in HD so no great loss there if I have to settle for SD, mostly looking to get rid of $35/month of cable upgrades just to get MotoGP on Speed, and the better coverage will be a bonus in any case.

    That Sewell unit above might work. Give it a shot, if worst comes to worst you could always just watch it on the laptop until you upgrade to a macBookPro!!

    Re: Rossi a little more comfortable

    Not sure what video connector is use. It's the one that would go from laptop to a projector in a conference room. My TV has a 'in' for that. I do audio by running a male/male cable from my laptop's headphone jack to the back of my TV, which also has a headphone jack 'femaile' port.

    My TV is circa 2007 42" LG LCD. 720p. I think they go for like 500 bucks now. So it's not like some brandy new job with all these fancy connections.
