I see so many people making xbox 360 laptops and all that. And I wonder, how do people connect their systems to the screen?
I have a composite to VGA box which I use for my gamecube, but it looks awful, is there any HD type box for 360's?
Maybe this?

Re: Xbox 360 on a pc monitor.
i believe they just hardwire vga out of the video lugs. theres like 70 connections, and im pretty sure you can get all of the components for VGA.
but, that cable is probably fine if you just want to use it to play on a pc monitor.

Is there a pinout out there that shows you how to hardwire it?
Re: Xbox 360 on a pc monitor.
If you're not making a laptop, DX sells 360 VGA adapters. The 360 outputs it without any modification, just needs the right cable. Or, if the monitor can take DVI, you can use an HDMI to DVI cable.
