    Hello,


    I currently own a 1st generation xbox 360 with a composite cable port; meaning I can't use HDMI. Recently I have found two converters on the market currently that would allow me to use HDMI.
    The first is by XCM: http://www.xcm.cc/xcm_white_360_hdmi_1080i_cable.htm

    The Second if by Madcatz: http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=802814

    I would like to know if anyone uses either of these for their 360; preferrably on their computer monitor. I own a Hanns-G HG216D 22" HDMI monitor with a native resolution of 1680 x 1050. The monitor has an input of VGA and HDMI

    I have no HDTV in my room or house; so I currently use the Microsoft HD VGA cable, but the ghosting is so terrible on my monitor it makes my eyes bleed.

    Could anyone give me some insight on how the quality might be on my monitor? Thanks.

    no suggestions?

    My birthday is coming up I'd I would like to know either to ask for this or ask for my parents to pay for half of an HDTV
