which is the better source to get a best quality
video signal, use the VGA port or the Svideo port to my monitor
I recently purchased a new 17" monitor and WOW what a difference in viewing,
my old one was a dull and details were hard to see.
currently I'm using VGA but would svideo be better??


Svideo output is intended for use with older Television sets, (models
that do not support EDTV or HDTV standards), VCRs, etc.

It is very much inferior compared to VGA as it only provides 640 x 480
resolution.

Good luck
