I'm no video expert by any means..my limited video experience is one RP-hdtv in the living room and a cheap Infocus X-1 projector in my dedicated room.
Kennyt pretty much answered your question regarding what a DVI cable is (Digital Video Interface). Almost all of the new gear has this type or will have..even my Comcast hdtv box has this (not active yet I'm told) for future use.
Costly component video cables will sell used for very little in the very near future. Videophiles are somewhat like Audiophiles..they upgrade very often.
Every dvd player that has hit the market (there have been about 4-5) that could up-convert to 780p or 1080i has had legal action served against if this could be done using component cable output. They quickly left the market.
There will be no hi-def picture over component cable and I fail to see a big difference in picture quality between well made component video cables regardless of price at 480i or 480p. Of course IMHO
