I have just bought myself a nice P4 1.8ghz Dell GX260 for £30 delivered off the bay and installed XP Pro with SP3 on it.

I want to use this computer as a media computer in my lounge with a wireless keyboard with touchpad. What is the best way to get a good picture on the tv with this machine as it only has onbaord graphics.

Would it be to buy a SVGA card and plug it in using the same cord you would for laptops or is there a better way?
 
Currently its an old style sony not a LCD. But i think my parents are planning on getting a 32" Samsung screen.
 
Of i were to get a cheap card off ebay does it matter?

I mean do you need to get an expensive one or is the picture always going to be the same?
 
The computer only has an AGP slot so what would be the very cheapest model of card that will suit my needs that performs well?
