If you are using Vegas, you can output the preview window to the fire-wire
port, where it will act just like the preview window on your desktop. From
the the fire-wire port to either a camera and a monitor or an ADVC100 (or
similar) bi-directional converter and a monitor. I have the latter set-up
with dual 17" LCD computer monitors. (If I were doing a lot of Video
editing, I'd invest in larger ones in a minute.) I like seeing previews on
an NTSC monitor if that's where the video is headed, and it is always nice
to reclaim a few square inches of desktop.
