I like to keep my systems original. If you mod them they aren't as original even if they are more functional. But hey! I hooked the RF systems up to a VCR that outputs composite, and now the picture looks fine on my 50". It's back in my gaming setup now. Component on Wii works fine with it too. I can't see very much lag on this TV, so maybe I won't get an HD CRT after all. I just hope it will work with the SCART to component converter.
