Sorry about the OT post but I've tried every where, including dailyradar forums...

I recall aimslab making a VGA converter for the PSOne but they're out of business now. Anybody know if it's compatiable and where I can find one? Also Dreamcast has a couple on the market, they use the same multi-av out type of connector. Is that type of connection standard? Will the DC on work w/ the PS2?

Kind of interested in this too. At Fry's they have the DreamCast (on a computer monitor) set up right next to a PS2 (on a tv). I think they are trying to get people to buy the DC because on the monitor, the graphics are like twice as good as the PS2 on the TV (which are sold out). I figured it was standard on the newer systems, but I guess not. They have 2 systems set up like this right as you walk in the door at the Manhatten Beach Fry's so check it out. Makes the PS2 look like last years technology when you compare the graphics with the DC on the monitors.

Right when you walk into the the Fry's in Fremont you can see down to the end of the store. On that whole aisle they have DC's on monitors and PS2s on TVs, about 8 setups. I went there 3 times over the break (computer parts) and everybody was always on the PS2.

Still I'd love to see my PS2 on a VGA monitor. Plus I can sit in my room all winter break with FF9 :)
