I guess I could order a cheap composite cable, but I'd rather upgrade instead of downgrade. =P
My Dreamcast VGA Box was worth every penny and it was the easiest setup! I payed $35 w/shipping from Racketboy. A made a short video, about the VGA Box, on my YouTube channel. It seems immensely difficult to get the Saturn working on an HDTV and doesn't seem worth the time and money.

My s-video cables from the racket store just came in. My goodness, the picture quality is great - I'm playing on a LCD, I can't imagine how great this would look on a CRT.

Dang, I got a Dell LCD that has like every input ever. I might just use it for some of my old consoles that can do S-Video. I'm pretty bummed my HDTV doesn't have it. :(

I picked up a scart to hdmi box off of ebay for about 50 bucks not too far back and it works great. I haven't had any problems with picture or audio for that matter. I use that box for pretty much any console I have that will output rgb.
