Over VGA the TV is fantastic, it's super clear, even when sitting really close. The only niggles I have found are with other aspects, such as the rather selective PIP, the TV has built in DTV, but you can't view that over PIP, and when you select either of the scart sources, you can only viewHDMI in PIP. Whereas sometimes when playing games that don't need the full screen I like watching the news.
Apart from that minor niggle, it's a wonderful TV, and yes the prices are plummeting on these things, I got mine for £798, (though that was a bit of luck, as the online retailer had listed it wrong, as the DTV version normally costs £980, so I got a good discount there), but buying online is the best option, as high street retailers are selling this for £1100.
