I'm amazed how good my photos look on an HD TV. But even an regular TV looks good for photos. And both Windows and Macs will do a slide show with what they come with.
Good luck.
I was going to recommend something similar. There is easy-to-use technology that will allow you to make a DVD (or in older cases, a CD) on your computer. You could make a slide show with nice dissolves and whatever music you choose. Or as ccorlew suggests, you can hook the TV up to your computer. If you'd like, it would then be easy to share the DVDs with those who would want them as a memento. Just a thought.
