Kairi00 what tv-video card do u use? can you recommend me one? Are the graphics just liek the TV ones or does it look better?

I'm using an el cheapo ATI TV Wonder VE. I noticed a very very slight improvement using the RCA in from the TV card. However if you want true monitor/VGA experience, get a VGA Box. The VGA Box looks a LOT better than any of the screenshots I've posted.

If I only knew how to get a screencap directly from a VGA Box... :(

I would reccomend the WinTV series. Although the quality isn't much cop unless you get a program like Dscaler (http://www.dscaler.com), the compatibility is right up there. The pinnacle TV card I had wouldn't work with my N64, or any of my PSX games.
kairi00 is right however, if you have a PS2 or a Dreamcast, get a VGA box.

If you own a Dreamcast, and don't own a VGA Box yet.... well what are you waiting for? Go out there and get one already! :)

No it doesn't remove the jaggies, sometimes it might even add to them (try playing the Capcom 2D fighting games, you'll see what I mean), but all the details in the scenery that you don't see on the TV becomes readily apparent.... try playing Guilty Gear X on a VGA Box... you'll see what I mean. And true, some games don't support the VGA box, but there are very very few of those.
