I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 6000 and a Sharp 32″ Aquos LCD TV. How do I connect the two? I’ve used S-Video and it works but the quality is terrible because S Video is using 680×480. The best I understand is VGA to VGA but in my case the LCD has no VGA input. Can I use a VGA to RGB Component Cable? Or VGA to DVI-I than DVI-I to HDMI? Can anyone help me?

The easiest would be the vga/rgb adapter, they come bundled with most graphics card but are generally pretty cheap. About 5-10 bucks on newegg or ebay.
you have 2 options:
1 - Buy a new laptop with the correct hookups
2 - Buy a new tv with the correct hookups
1. You cannot convert VGA to HDMI or DVI.
2. The RGB/Component area is very confusing. VGA can be “converted” to RGB by a cable. This RGB is not what is normally referred to as Component, when talking about the input to a TV. That is a different RGB-RGB Component. Some VGA outputs from PCs carry extra RGB component signals. If yours is one of those, then you can use the VGA to cpomponent cable indicated by the earlier poster. There’s no guarantee you can use this cable.
There are converters which will convert VGA to component RGB. See the link below. http://www.smarthome.com/777060.html
Digitaldealz.net sells the adapter that you would need to go from VGA to RGB, the link is below:
