That's a decent idea. Are there any video cards that have
RGB outputs? If I got one with a DVI output I would still
have to invest in a DVI source selector because my TV only
has one DVI input and it is currently being used by my
satellite box. The TV has two RGB inputs, and currently
only one is in use. I have looked for cards with RGB outs
but have not found any.
