I need to be able to wire my receiver to my computer. I would like to be able to play music that is on my computer through the speakers that are wired into my reveiver that in turn is wired to my computer. I have a G4 mac and an ONKYO receiver. I have no idea where to start on this project.

ok, I am assuming you already have a soundcard in the computer. Get yourself a 3.5mm (mini jack) to RCA converter, then plug the mini jack into the speakers out on the computer, and the other two into the corresponding audio in on your reciever. That will give you 2.0 channel sound.
If you have optical out, then you can use that (and any adapters you may need) to plug it in into the digital in on your reciever. That will give you 5.1 surround sound.
