Digi really wanted one for his kids so he payed the jackpot for it
Anyway, my original post was, in short, that you really need the cable. I didnt buy a RGB one (dont have a HDtv) untill a couple of months ago because I could get one for 10 euro's instead of the default 30 but it really makes a big difference. The picture is a bit sharper but the biggest difference was that the colors are so much more alive.
Yes/no. Yes if I look at it from a straight cost perspective, no if I look at it from a "kid's smile on xmas morning" point of view.
If they love it, it was well worth it. They've been asking for one for over a year now, there was no way we weren't going to get them one. (Although I'm pretty sure I've got 'em convinced we couldn't get them one, I'm such an evil prick that way. )
