Yes. The only thing I'd add is that the difference between VGA and DVI may
be small or large depending on the display device. On my 19" LCD monitors I
can't see any difference between the VGA and DVI inputs. On my old 42"
plasma the difference is marked - VGA is less sharp and text often has
annoying ghosting. The moral of the story is that it's always best to try
the various options and see which works acceptably for you.

Cheers,
Steve
