Sharp LC-26SB14U 26" LCD bedroom TV for a monitor

I want to start off by saying hi to everyone as I'm a newbie. I received a PowerMac G4 with 23" cinema display monitor from a family member. I want to get rid of the monitor (due to space limitations) and would like to use my Sharp LC-26SB14U 26" LCD bedroom TV for a monitor. The TV has a PC Input - analog RGB D-sub 15-pin. Is there anyway to hook the PowerMac G4 up to my TV and use that as a monitor? Any input would be great!!

Here's some more of the TV specs if needed:

It has an analog input for "PC" rather than a DVI input? That's kinda bizarre. Well if you don't need to use both of the HDMI ports on the TV, then I would get a cable that converts DVI to HDMI and use that instead.

So that would be all I need?

Yes. Of course I am making an assumption that your G4 has a DVI output (for LCD monitors) to begin with. It's been standard for quite some time now.

I would imagine it's just an SVGA port. Couldn't he get away with a DVI=>SVGA cable? That's what I use with my Sharp 37" and it looks great.

If it is just an analog SVGA port for CRT monitors, then I imagine it would connect direct to that analog PC port on the TV, wouldn't it?

I looked up an Apple article with discussions on what graphics ports the PowerMac G4s came with. It has pictures with explanations. Philly... if you could take a look at the back of your Mac and review this page to be sure of what your Mac supports, we can be more certain of our advice. I should have suggested this first time around.

I have a ADC port and a VGA port on the back of the tower.

Is there a way to hook this up?

Alrighty. You should just need a standard analog SVGA cable. Examples below, but you can get anywhere.

TY so much for the info

Is there any drop in video quality when using this cable?

How's video quality when using vga to vga cable?

I'm not sure I know how to answer that question. Probably less than ideal since the graphics card is converting digital to analog, and the TV is converting analog to digital. If you want a digital signal maintained, get an ADC-to-DVI and a DVI-to-HDMI adapter. That may be rather pricey though and potentially subject to noise artifact.
