Connecting computer to TV & Stereo?

Folks:

I'm experimenting with connecting my computer (Dell Inspiron 600m
laptop) to my TV to play videos.

The laptop has a S-Video out connector ... and it seems to work fine
when I use the s-video adapter provided with the laptop (I connect it to
the video in connectors on the front of the TV).

My question is this: What's the best way to connect the computer to both
the TV for video and my stereo amplifier for audio?

I assume that S-Video provides both video & audio. Is there a S-Video
cable that can split the video & audio into 3 connectors so I can hook
up to the S-Video IN connector on the TV and the audio in on my stereo?

I am *NOT* very sophisticated when it comes to audio/video ... so I'm
not 100% sure what I'm doing.
