Yes - you get a device that plugs into a port on the side and gives you S-Video,
Composite and S/PDIF audio. If you use a converter such as the Midiman CO2, you can
convert it to optical that will be suitable for your 831.
The plug-in thing with the S/PDIF is standard on all Inspiron 8000s as far as I know.
