Media Center Computer

I recently purchased an HP media center computer. I love it. Now I am in the process of connecting it to my Plasma TV. I have both S-Video and and PC monitor connections on the TV. I have connected the TV to the PC using S-video and the quality was ok. I was wondering if there would be a significant increase in the video quality if I connected to the PC with the PC connection. And if so. My next problem is that I have only one monitor connection on the computer and I do use a regular monitor. I have a serial connection on the PC could I use that? Or is there a S-Video to PC adapter that I could use?

Ok I havnt tried this (yet) but i want to. I dont think the VGA connection will be better then s-video. The quality could be enhanced somewhere in the computer software, rather than the connection. S-video is the best you're going to get for a tv connection and you cant use a serial port for a monitor.
