Alright wanted to know if anyone knew whether this is possible. I have a spare Viewsonic 17inch monitor hooked up to a wallmount next to my bed as a primary LCD for my HTPC which is also hooked up to the my Westy 32incher. My question is with the LCD's spare DVI port is it possible to hook it up to my cable box (which also has a DVI output), so that when i switch my Westy to something like an HTPC or xbox360, i can view my digital cable on my 17inch monitor?
 
You can switch inputs on the monitor so that isn't a problem, but it depends heavily on your cable box. My two previous Time Warner Cable boxes didn't output via DVI correctly.
