Connecting a Nintendo Wii to an IBM P275

Hello.

What will be the best way to connect a Wii to an IBM P275 monitor? It(My monitor) has both DVI and VGA support. I would like to do it via a method that will not have the quality or lag issues that TV tuner cards have. Is there going to be anything like a VGA box or anything that will allow it to directly connect to my monitor? Have there been any announcements in regard to a device(If one does not already exist) that would allow this kind of setup to take place?

Thanks in advance.
 
I also have a P275 and would like to connect my Wii to it. I can think of several devices that allow you to connect, but they are generally over $100 and their picture quality could be improved upon.

What would give good image quality while remaining simple and cheap, if possible?
 
Two possible ways...
1. Wii may have a VGA cable come out for it.

2. Get a Wii component cable and hook it into a component to VGA transcoder. There are a few available, one of the most popular is the V-digi for around $50 to $60.

Really, no other options are possible that won't reduce the image quality to below that of a normal TV.
