Well, I'm not sure what you mean by "the best it can", but I have an 
e-TV VGA to NTSC converter from startech.com.  The problem I have is 
that colors close to white get rendered as white.  No adjustment seems 
to help, since it's really only the light colors that need a brightness 
adjustment.  I can't necessarily blame it on the converter, since it 
could be my 15 year old TV.  When I get time, I'll drag a TV down from 
upstairs to compare against.
