Ok, bear with a newbie. I'm considering buying an Xbox Elite. I've never had a console before. I'm more of a pc gamer. I have two questions..
I have a 22" Samsung 226BW monitor. No HDMI input but I understand I can get the adapter and run it into the DVI input. I also use this monitor for my pc. Will I have to manually switch the cables from xbox to pc all the time? Could I run the HDMI into the VGA connector on the monitor with the proper adapter or would that just defeat the purpose.
I want to put the xbox by my pc. The only speaker in that room are my pc speakers - surround sound - so I'd like to use them. Is there a way I can do that? Will I have to go through a bunch of cable switching for that too or do I need to get another set of speakers and some sort of stereo receiver in there?
Thanks for the help and I hope these aren't stupid questions.
