This comes up often. And different people have different ideas.
I think that the arcade CRT will have the best picture quality, but very very hard to get any windows stuff going. And you have the trouble of blowing the CRT if you don't have it configured right (or get an j-pac to solve this one).
TV's. You have to go SVideo in the US (or it WILL look like crap). Then it depends more on the TV-out card. ATI's are always good (but the X-pert one), some of the G-Force are good, depending on the brand since they each use different TV-out chips. The TV out will allow you to play windows great and play games like impact, and other Windows only emulators.
