I can't imagine it being cheap...I guess you'll need a DVI or S-Video to component video adapter. If your TV supports HD, then you should go with DVI so you can do 720p output. Otherwise, go SVideo...the converter will be much cheaper. Stay away from composite...the quality would be abysmal.

It is a Sony Wega that only has composite or component.  No HDMI, no DVI
and no S-Video.  Odd, I know, but those are the inputs.
