I am looking at getting a new monitor,

This one http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8273101&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat104900050013&id=1170290765723

3000:1 Contrast ration 2ms response time... so yea it will look fantastic for my PC... However it only seems to have DVI-D inputs.... I remember something about a converter from VGA to DVI but there is some stuff about digital versus analog....

Is it at all possible, regardless of cost for an adapter, to hook up my 360 to this monitor?

Seeing as how Starcraft Ghost was Blizzards failed attempt at consoles, I am very certain Starcraft 2 will be PC only. For awhile... I mean Starcraft came out on the N64 lol....

Okay so I woke up this morning and went out into the living room and the wife tells me I have the "rings of death".  I look at the 360 and sure enough it has three blinking red lights. This seems wierd to me because my 360 was off all night.. So I turn it on and the lights go away and it starts up like normal. I played a few games of R6 Vegas and then turned it off and turned it back on and still worked fine.

The only thing I can think of is that I had my play and charge plugged in and it was charging it while the xbox was off. The light on the cable was red so it was getting power somehow... I hope this didn't damage the 360, I just assume it was giving the lights because it didn't know where the power was going?.... If it happens again I am sending it back, as it is only 3 months old. Anyone else have a problem like this?

[QUOTE="phobos8u"]

You said you wanted a 360 for music too? well with the HDD you can save music to it... that way you don't have to shuffle CDs.

Generic_Dude

you mean stream it from your computer? sorry I am getting a cold and its the last day of this semester so I am way out of it lol. 

With either, you can stream it. That's what I do, and I don't waste my precious 20gb doing it. All you need is Windows Media Player 11.
