I saw a digg article that amazon will be selling 1000 units of the xbox360 core system for $100 a piece. i want to grab one, and i was considering running it through my laptop and maybe a hdtv [if i rob a bank] later. my question is, can i run it to my computer via dvi/vga cable? will the cable come with the system? if i can, will it scale well at 1920x1200 or will it be streched/squashed?

the xbox 360 has an available vga cable but not dvi. You cannot connect the 360 to a pc but you can connect it to a hdtv. the stretched image should not be to bad but if you get a monitor like the dell 2407wfp with 1:1 pixel mapping then you can use it with black bars on top and bottom. How do you get the 360 for $100?????????

do you guys think the xbox360 will be sold in eastern time?
I'm about 99.999999999999999999 percent sure it will only be available to 1000 people precisely in the pacific standard time zone.
You can still dream for that .000000000000000001 % chance a worm hole will open up allowing you to snatch one up from the east coast.
