And another thing - my TV is a Samsung and I have heard that there are issues connecting a Samsung to Vaio - is that true?
There are some issues with VAIO and Samsung but give it a go because you may be one of the lucky few that manage it.
OH! Yes it is a 301 - Um.... what is an HDMI cable? My Tv is 34 feet from my Vaio if I run the cable along the walls or about 18 feet as the crow flies - can I get cable that long? I still am not sure where the aerial goes - some instructions in the packaging would have really helped!

This might be what you are looking for. Hopefully it is just long enough and incredibly cheap. (Usually about £10 a metre).

How do you use the computer at the moment? It is designed to sit under your TV!
Well, I work from home so I need to use Office progs and I need to be based at a desk because of all the paperwork involved. I have a Flatron screen and have the CPU under the desk and all of this is facing away from and diagonally opposite, in the room, to the TV. I thought I would be able to get TV on the screen, which is on my desk.
I can put the CPU under TV. The modem will reach - but the screen needs to be pluged into the CPU and it only has short leads so I couldn't then use it at my desk. If I did get longer leads - would the wireless key board work, so far and facing away from, the CPU? Ditto the wirless mouse - Id be facing in the wron direction unless I got extended wires all over the place. Did I buy the wrong computer?

You can get the TV to show on your desk screen just by using the tuner.
A wireless mouse and keyboard will work upto about 10M and it doesn't matter which direction it is because it transmits the signal in a radial field.
