    Hey, I just wanted to know what kind of cables I need to buy so I can view movies from my 700m to my TV.

    I bought a Radio Shack S-Video cable but it doesnt seem like it'll fit so i havent even bother to open it.

    The 700M has an s-video output so all you will need is an s-video cable, this will cover the video side. I don't know if the 700M comes with a dongle like the XPS Gen. 2 but my XPS came with a little accesory that plugs into the s-video output on the notebook and the accesory output to s-video, regular video, and SPDIF (Coaxil) digital audio. If the 700M comes with this accesory then you can get dolby digital audio from your notebook. I doubt it comes with this accesory so you will need a audio cable that goes from a headphone jack to a left and right RCA audio (red and white) output. Radioshack should also have this.
