okay so my latest project is to insatall a computer in my car. i have the monitor and everything, but the monitor only has a/v inputs. my question is what is the best way to make the pc show up on the monitor (i realize that vga is way higher definition.) i don't know if this matters, but keep in mind that the monitor is about 6.5 inches diagonally. all ideas and experience are welcome.

note: a vga monitor is not an option here ;)
