    TV on a 2405FPW

    I'm looking to buy a 2405FPW to use as my PC monitor and also as my TV. Is there any way I could watch TV, DVDs and play Xbox360 on it as well as using it for my pc?

    Thanks

    Not all at the same time . I mean seperately. I'm asking what extras I need to buy to be able to do it.

    A Component cable for Xbox 360 (comes with premium). A composite one for TV (SCART to yellow, red, white) and a DVI-DVI cable for the PC

    Thats it.
