I just got a tv with an s-video in and am wondering whether it makes a difference on Gamecube or not. Also, I've looked at some adaptors to hook up things like PS2, Xbox, etc to monitors, but one that I found got some bad reviews. Anyone have a good one that they'd recommend?

s video does make a noticeable difference.
i havent come across any 1st party S video cables for the GC tho,i have a 3rd party one that works well.
They do have official component cables on the nintendo website,but i just havent felt like spending the $30+ shipping to get em :/

Check out this this thread for ideas on VGA hookups..

I've been thinking about getting the XBox VGA Adapter from www.xboxvga.com but its kinda pricey...not sure yet.

The best option, though pricy for multi-console hookups to a monitor is the Viewsonic N6. $~330 though, but definitely the most comprehensive/high-quality option. The rest are just line-doublers that will look pretty poor on a VGA monitor.
