I also have no idea if my VGA input on my TV is going to produce lag. 

I guess it all comes down to whether or not you're happy with VGA-in on your TV. My old HDTV in the states had negligible lag on VGA, but produced a fuzzy picture. I'd give it a test and see what you think.

Well, it is nice and snappy when I test it with my computer. Im not sure if this is an acceptable test or not... but I do all kinds of music stuff on it with Fruity Loops and don't feel as if its lagging.

Well that's the best test of all, isn't it? If you're happy with it, then it's fine. Most people can't notice a little bit anyway.

yeah, I figured it should be fine then.   I am actively attempting to get an XRGB3, since the Framemeister is too expensive for now.  and only does HDMI out

Almost nabbed a 3, but it shot up too high.  For the price I could just spring for the Mini.

Currently possibly getting a XRGB1.  Not sure if I should pass and find a 3 though.

I don't really know a lot about the '1. From what I know it's pretty solid, but might not work on some kinds of video inputs. It might be good to see if you can find any information about people using it with RGB-NES or PCE before buying it.

It is supposedly really great, but lacks scanlines (SLG3000 fixes that).  It also has no firmware (dipswitches), and not alot of people use it really anymore.  I'm focusing on and probably getting a 3 through a trade.

The 1 is smaller/easier to use since its not menu based, but lacks support, from what I understand.  So if I have a problem, I am boned.

The '1 seems cool for certain setups. Scanlines shmamlines.

Micromsoft are still selling the '3, and I'd guess they are going to continue to do so because it takes care of the analog output stuff. Definitely a good buy.

Yeah, I should be getting a 3 soon from Deadite once I get him his doojabber that I'm trading him for it.

I would just invest in a decent comb filter. The playchoice 10 ppu color palette isn't a 1:1 to the original PPU.
