[mythtv-users] HD and/or component/DMI graphics card recommendations?

   Prob. still a way off (no HD source yet, and no current cash to get a 
stonking great flat screen TV), but my parents' purchase of a new Sony LCD TV 
that only has one s-video input got me to thinking.

   What do people with HD setups use for display?

   I currently use a pretty basic nVidia-based card with s-video out.  I've 
seen online [simple connector] converters from DVI to either component or HDMI 
out, but I'm guessing that I'd need specific cards to actually utilise the 
appropriate pins on the connector.

   There was talk of nVidia 6600s having component out (via DVI?), but not all 
of them, and looking at online shops I can see no ref. to this capability.
