That's hard to quantify. Depends on your TV and what vid card you are using.

If it's an mini-itx who's TVOUT's are known to be so-so (at least on the
earlier boards I don't know about the later ones). Then I'd say it's a huge
difference.

For example, if I run an xterm on SVID I can hardly read it using my default
fonts.
On RGB I can read it from 6ft away and use it to write scripts etc on my TV.

Cheers

Steve
