Yes TV-OUT rules!!! I went and bought an S-Video to RCA adapter so it runs on my old 27" samsung. Yeah, image quality is sacrificed but nothing compares to sitting around your living room with friends playing MAME (Street Fighter vs Marvel)!!! I'm pretty sure every computer allows you to choose 1024-1028 res for TV-out whether the TV supports it or not. I've never heard of a TV that didn't go into 1024- my friends old piece of shit 10 yr old Radio Shak TV ran at that res. (Looking very crappy) TV-out is the reason I'm savin up to get a HDTV.

stez...
some do, some don't, it's not about the geforce itself, so much as about the manufacturer, as in pny, extasy, or vidtek or whatever.... do a pricewatch search, u can find pci geforces with tv out for really cheap, that you can use solely for that function...
as for buying a hdtv... i don't think that's such a hot idea. i mean, yeah, the visuals are great, but they are asking WAY too much for those especially when some very good competing technologies are TOTALLY ready for primetime.

lol why should I have to pay for a feature that is included in my card? seeing as I already paid for the card, I should be able to use it's full features without paying extra...
lol but I guess I could be wrong about that

considering it is a "supported" feature of the drivers so I should not have to use an external program, but for some reason the drivers never detect the flipping analog displays...
very odd and annoying but yeah...
