Exactly what I'm looking for! Know of any comparable TVs that also have VGA input for the Dreamcast?...or a VGA to component converter that works for it. Otherwise this is perfect... thanks!
I don't know of any WEGA HD CRT with a VGA input. Right now my Dreamcast uses SVideo on the WEGA and VGA on a CRT Computer Monitor. I have tried a VGA to HDMI convertor on the WEGA, but no luck.
I am hoping going from VGA to Component on a HD CRT might work, anyone try this?

I play on my flatscreen 32" 1080i CRT. I never really minded how they looked on my 57" DLP screen though.

I plan on upgrading to a new 55" Samsung LED 240Hz 3D HDTV by November. Due to space limitations I now use my 42" 1080P Panel, I have upgraded every cable I can (To at least S-Video) and those that are not I plan to in the not too distant future.
I hope you're using something other than the built in scaler.

I currently use a 32" LCD for my retro consoles all using S-video/component or VGA, 50" Samsung 1080p LED DLP HDTV for current gen systems (Xbox 360, PS3). I plan on upgrading to a new 55" or 60" Samsung LED 240Hz 3D HDTV by November. I may get a CRT eventually but it depends on space limitations.

Well, because my birthday is coming up my dad agreed to help me hunt for a Sony Wega 27HS420.
