In my experience, analog cable will look worse, and TRUE digital cable (non-HD) will look about the same or slightly better. But if you own a DVD player, you've gotta get a digital set -- 480P smokes 480i by a wide, wide margin.
(Oh, wait, I can't say "smokes" any more, can I? No, wait, that's a different thread . . . .)
If you do go with the digital set, power conditioning (both for the TV and the cable box) helps a lot.
