Simon, if you are talking about Sky, I sold my Composite + RGB only Sky
box on ebay for £50 and bought a Grundig Composite + SVideo + RGB box
for £20. All in the timing they say.
Didn't want to have another box (and power supply), not to mention the
level of compression that Sky performs on the broadcasts means that you
don't really get any benefit from RGB (even direct to the display) over
SVideo .. my experience anyway
Please ignore all of above if you are not using Sky!
