If there is any benefits in picture quality of HDMI vs. component, then using a converter to go from an analog signal(component) to a digital signal (HDMI) will probably be lost in the A-D conversion. It kinda defeats the purpose of using HDMI, which is an all digital signal.

the picture quality wouldn't matter to me, as long as I could upscale my DVDs, and enjoy my games and HD DVDs @ 1080p

why would the quality degrade? it's trancoding!

digital is not automagically better than analog for video signals, it depends on many variables (mostly interference and the quality of adc/dacs used in the display and source).
