I am concerned about my video quality and may need some upgrades. I'm using a Sabrent PC to TV converter which is fair, but not for video shows. Any suggestions?
I use LCD monitors with VGA connections (VGA out of my laptop to a VGA Splitter to the LCDs).

With the shopping season coming up you just may find a bargain or 2 out there.

I found 2 new 32" LCDs (720p) for $250 each last year and use them for the audiance.

Hope this helps!
