Here's a gadget that should bring the computer into your home theater system a lot more. [ http://www.chinavasion.com/zz99 ]
Chinese electronic products makers seem to have figured out that when it comes to entertainment solutions around the house the simplest solution is often the best. Especially when it comes to connecting your PC to TV.
Makers of the latest China wholesale electronic gadget to enter the fray, the HDMI converter box, do away with the whole wireless streaming idea and follows the 'wire goes in, wire goes out' solution. All that is required is to plug in the VGA cable into one port in the HDMI adapter and the HDMI cable into the other end and you've got yourself a PC TV party.
As a result this PC to TV video converter shouldn't only be good for getting videos from your computer to your TV via the VGA cable. You should also be able to get component video to HDMI just like VGA to HDMI so those 'older gadgets' like VCRs and the like can be hooked to the TV too. So HDMI Pong is a go.

I see, I need to pick up a Samsung then, my Sharp Aquos doesn't have a 1:1 pixel configuration (AKA "just scan" option), so anything that is connected through the HDMI port is overscanned, and about an inch of all four corners it cut off, which really sucks.
In the mean time (until I can afford a new TV) I'm going to try and get a VGA to component cable and try connecting it that way. I read somewhere that overscan only happens through HDMI or DVI on my TV so hopefully this will work.
sure thing buddy, make sure not to buy those cables @ best buy or other similar stores. I bought my HDMI cable on ebay for 7 dollars, but the same cable cost 75 dollars @ best buy :P
