    Dell 2407 with other hardware

    Hey all,

    Just a quick question...

    I've taken a look at the 2407 inputs and I didn't realise that it didn't have HDMI ports

    Anyway... I want the following pieces of hardware attached to the monitor:

    - PC (Currently uses DVI into my current monitor)
    - Xbox 360 (Currently connected to my TV with Component (Green, Red, Blue))
    - PS3 (Currently connected to same TV with HDMI port)

    If I want to be able to use HD on all pieces of hardware, what connections should I use for each? I.e. If I wanted to watch HD movies or trailers on my PC, is DVI okay? etc.

    ALSO! I will be buying the Aego M's soon - how would I connect these so I can use them on all of the above?

    Thanks,
    Marky

    So how about:

    PC -- DVI
    360 - VGA
    PS3 -- DVI through DVI Splitter

    Would that be good?

    Also - how/where do I connect the speakers?

    How about going for the 2408... it has more than enough inputs to do everything in best quality:
    2xDVI-D (HDCP), DisplayPort, HDMI, HD15, Composite, S-Video, Component
