Because if the latter is true I wont really be that dissapointed....but if we only have the standard Red Yellow White outputs, I will be a little dissapointed. Not that

Composite = Y/R/W
Component = R/G/B

Component video is just a type of cable. It can still display 480i.

As for monitor support, it will probably support DVI output, which is more for HDTVs than monitors. DVI and HDMI carry a digital signal, where component video outputs digitally, then converts it to analog to send it through the cable, and then converts it back to digital when it reaches the TV. And since HDMI is backwards compatible with DVI, it would support HDMI as well.
