Hey fellas I need some help buying a HDTV monitor for my XBOX 360 which will also work with my PC. I went to Best Buy and this dude was trying to sell me Sony Bravia 26" LCD HDTV for $1,999 Canadian with a 4-year warranty included. It had really sharp picture but it was too expensive. Oh it was also very heavy. I like my Acer 19" PC monitor:

It is inexpensive, really light, and has great quality. The drawback I can't use it for my 360. You see the thing is I work as a security guard and I am all alone from 7pm to 7am so I want something that is portable so I can easily hide it if my boss comes :amazed:
 
you can get this

and hook it up to your PC monitor. the only drawback is you wouldnt be able to hook the sound up to it. do you ahve speakers as well? if so you have the red and white there for stereo audio. otherwise you could get some cheap computer speakers and get a analog to headphone converter and do it that way. hope this helps.

Im using the standard VGA input on my LCD High Def Flat Panel TV for computing. Do all computers have DVI on the back? I never paid much attention - if so, would I get high def from my computer using the DVI? I could still get high def from my high def cable box by using five wire. Hmmm.... I shall investigate.....
 
I went to best buy and got a 22 inch Westinghouse LCD for $400. It has, DVI, VGA, Compontent, and RCA ports. I play my 360 on it and it looks great.
