i would say yes, because you're going through one less analog 
transformation.

(and it's cheaper - one less piece of hardware)

unless your have component out on your motherboard that is. :)

My understanding was that if you really wanted better quality than component on a TV, you need to just go all-digital through DVI to an LCD or plasma set with real digital pixels (as opposed to a CRT-based HDTV, or something, where DVI would really be pretty useless since you're just converting to analog in the TV anyway).
