I have a coworker that was explaining to me today that i cannot play PAL dvds. He says that it is possible to get a player that will play it but that my TV will not be able to view it. Does this sound right? Honestly I dont know. That is why I had to come and post this as soon as he finished. I knew someone here would know the answer. Thanks.

Check out the International Forum for lots of helpful information .... but basically you would need a code-free player that also can convert PAL so that you can view it on your TV. It's two separate things that you have to deal with, and not all region-free players convert PAL.

Thanks.

A computer can play Pal discs 100% fine (and also non-R1)

If you modify it, yes.
