Connection Recommendations Wanted

[Yoshi]

My $900, four year-old Wega died for the second time last week. I spent $250 getting it fixed last summer, and it's not getting another cent out of me. Instead, I ponied up for an HDTV this week. It is getting delivered tomorrow and I need some advice on connections. I am going to wait a bit before getting a component selector, so I will have to pick and choose what gets which connection. Here is what I need to decide:

Options:
Component Inputs x 2
S-Video Inputs x 2
Composite Inputs x 4

Peripherals:
HDTV Cable Box
DVD Player
VCR
GameCube
PS2
Xbox

My current intentions are to give the cable box and the Xbox the component connections and put everything else into my S-Video selector. Would that be your choice as well? My DVD player does not support progressive scan, as it is several years old, so I figure it would benefit less from the component connection than the Xbox and cable box.

Does the TV have a DVI type input as well?... if so you could probably hook you're HDTV Cable Box or DVD player (if it has the output) to that. But this is how I would hook them up:

EDIT: I missed the part with the non-progressive DVD player

Component:
GameCube
XBOX

S-Video:
PS2
DVD

Composite:
VCR
HDTV Cable Box (if no DVI input)

If I were doing it, I'd be connecting it the same way. The PS2 and the non-progressive DVD player don't benefit too much from component so you can wait till you get a component selector. The GameCube benefits plenty depending on the game, but the component cable is a bit pricy if you don't order it directly from Nintendo (They seem to be the only people charging a reasonable price for it). So yeah, just connect it the way you were going to anyways.

What HDTV set did you purchase? I'm sorta in the market for one; or at least I will be by years end.

I was wondering that too, I plan on getting one as well later this year or early next

The what? I guess that's the end of the replies to this thread...

BTW, in case anyone ever finds this thread here, this is the TV I bought.

wow that's cheap. How is it? Any sacrifices due to cost? If i had some extra bucks i'd be all over that.

This may be a really stupid question as I'm not familiar with the DVD capabilities of the X-Box... but why would you need a separate DVD player, especially if it doesn't support progressive scan?

[Despair]

Well, because most of the stand alone dvd players are better than Xbox or PS2 one, have more features, and why not to have more dvd players?
