If you can avoid doing it, CT, I would avoid it, just to keep your CC in stock condition. I have a great takky with dual-PCI, TV tuner and everything, and I wish I'd kept it stock. :-(
I scored another CC and am going to (eventually) build a huge Mystic out of it, but I'll be doing the solder-the-575-board hack to force the rez down, rather than doing the VGA hack. This is just to keep from modifying the CC (can always swap the stock board back in!)

I intended the CC to be my little portable X terminal, but at less than 640x480 it is pretty sad.

Or maybe I'm a little confused as to which video hack we're discussing? I'm wanting to do the low voltage one--less stress on components.
