I'd also run a set of Component video cables, which will allow you=20
to view 'normal' Sky through an RGB scart>component adaptor, which I=20
think is the best solution available at the moment.

Have a think about any other equipment you may want to site with the=20
Sky box (DVD,Media PC etc) and run the cables for each. Thinking=20
about it, I'd add a VGA cable anyway.

I've always found lindy.co.uk a good source of quality cables at a=20
reasonable price.
