DO any of the TWC HD boxes have a VGA (RGBHV) output?

Hi,
    I just found this site a couple of days ago and have worked up the nerve to ask my first Q....

I have a RCA MM36100 EDTV.  The HD input is only a 15-pin HD (VGA) connector.  Do any (or all) of the TWC HDTV boxes have a 15 pin output?  BTW, I also have a normal y-r-b component input but it will only accept 480i.

Also, is there any way for me to pick up a box from TWC?  I went to return my analog one and asked for a HD one.  They said no, and that they were only call ahead/install on-site.  Argh.  I don;t want any cable dumbguy touching my gear.

BTW, FWIW, I had the pleasure of turning on channel 10's HD transmitter about 4 years ago.  (It was only connected to a dummy load ....thanks Nolan!)

Later,
Ben

As far as I know the TWC boxes have no such output...however you can purchase a transcoder which takes a VGA signal and converts it to a component signal:

Hope this helps

Wow, that stinks.  I really can't afford a $250 converter right now.

I don't suppose any of them have a modulated 8VSB ouput?  Kinda like the Dish 5000 system had.

What models does TWC offer?

I do know that Best Buy used to carry a transcoder that was only about $100. Take a look there. I believe it was made by RCA.

Reeeeaalllyyy.  Hmmmm...  That would kick royal butt.  I wonder if anyone else on this board is running a MM36100 with a TWC HD box.

Thanks for the info!
