Pros: -If it works, it's nice
Cons: -Meh, couldn't even find a video card that worked on this.
-Tried this on many videocards, and I think, if your videocard can do RCA/Svideo over VGA, well, it probably has a RCA port next to it.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Might be good for your modding projects, that's what I'm gonna end up doing with this. Glad I didn't pay much for this.
Tried on laptop, computer, and many other video card. Was never able to get a signal out of it.
You might need to buy a fancy box to get RCA out of your VGA, it's not worth the hassle, just get a new videocard. I'm glad my new notebook does have a S-video port.

Pros: simple and decent construction. nice color. simple in usage. Good options for connecting devices, both composite and s-video. would be a great product if the device worked.
Cons: The device doesn't work at all.. tried it on three computers. In none of the cases there was any signal on the composite port, while any other vga screen would work, and other composite sources would work.
Other Thoughts: As I have no s-video hardware, I haven't tested this output, but I doubt this will work.
Bottomline: Great product if it simply would do what it should do, and not just look nice in a drawer full of adapters.
Does not work!

Pros: If this product actually worked, then this product would be extremely simple to use: you simply plug it into the VGA Port of your computer and plug the other end into your television. The price is very reasonable.
Cons: However... it simply does not work. I've tried it on multiple computers and multiple televisions and VCRs, and it sadly doesn't work. :(
Bottomline: If the product worked, the price would be excellent. Sadly, there is no value in getting a broken piece of plastic. Take my advice and don't buy it.
