Okay..so my tv is a flatscreen...vizio..and along the bottom it says this...
Srs sound, dolby digital, hdmi, hdtv, and energy star..
So..does that mean im good to go..or ?..just a lil confused..

Your all set if you go with fire stick as you only need an hdmi plug. The interface is great. Connecting to a laptop is certainly a cheaper option but you have to deal with booting up, and all the other bullshit. For $39 I still say firestick interface is the way to go, especially if you just want to just turn on your tv and press play. For a tech savy know it all like Celso the laptop probably makes sense.

Well he did hav me wondering if you were in his unit..but I thought it best not to ask ... Originally Posted by aj14620

Roku is very easy to use; just spent 10 days watching Californication thru Roku /Netflix. I finished the series this morn, great ending! Fucking Hank!

If you don't have a HDMI port on your laptop a VGA cable will work fine but won't give you a HD picture.

It's a very simple connection and you need no firestick, roku, Hulu, Netflix, etc. Your laptop will provide you with far more than what those 4 offer and won't cost a penny....

PS: With this setup I watched American Sniper a couple weeks ago!
Yesterday watched the first hour of Fifty Shades of Grey, undecided if I'll watch the other hour and a half....seems to be more of a chic flick....lol

Or you can hook it up to your PC which should work even better since most PCs are more powerful than laptops.....
