Lots of HDTV's can do 1080p through component.

HDMI if only to keep things neater, but I'm sure I personally get crisper black levels when using HDMI.
go with hdmi, the best for sure.
Autobots. Roll out.
You can run up to 720p1080I through component, but IMO, 1080I looks like poop.
HDMi simplifies everything tho. full surround audio (if you have it) and 1080p res.
As far as the 360 goes, you can run it in 1080p through VGA sa well (as long as your TV supports 1080P through the VGA/DVI port.
Now it is the beginning of
a fantastic story! Let us

Good luck!
No, you can run 1080p through component. My 360 is doing just that right now.
From my experience, VGA ports on TVs are the most limited input, aside from composite. Oftentimes, they don't even support 16:9 resolutions. You might get 1080p on it, but it's far from guaranteed.
Two pitfalls of not having HDMI that I have discovered from having an older, Non-HDMI 360 that you may want to consider:
The 360 won't upscale DVDs over component. It's probably not going to be a primary DVD player anyway, but if you want it for a backup in another room or something, it would be better to have HDMI.
The Samsung TV I have has a really neat feature called Just Scan. This gives, from what I understand, 1 to 1 pixel mapping to the image, eliminating the overscan and showing more of the picture. I think it looks crisper on DVDs through HDMI and OTA HDTV. It does not work, at least with my TV, with component sources. It might be like that on other TVs.
I also agree that VGA seems more limited than component or HDMI. My Samsung lets you fiddle with tons of picture options on Component and HDMI, but when I hook my laptop up to it through VGA the picture options are more limited.
