Up until recently, most screen replacement options used composite video to drive it and while that was still an upgrade, feeding the LCD an RGB signal provides a much sharper image and much more vibrant colors!  So far, only one company has produced a board that drives the LCD panel with an RGB signal;  First releasing the 'LCDDRV' and now a follow-up product called the 'RGBDRV'.  This videos compares them both!
