    Hello all. I have just ordered a Sony Vaio Z590 and plan to connect it to a 26'' LCD TV when computing at home. I was wondering whether it is better to connect the 2 using the HDMI or VGA ports?

    Thank you!

    Contrary to popular belief, the cable brand doesn't matter on signal quality.
    HDMI is a digital signal - it either works or it doesn't.
