Dell 2005FPWS Composite input question?


Ok I was wondering if the Composite input on the Dell 2005FPWS is the same as Composite inputs for HDTV? There is only one jack, while composite cables have something like 3 or so? Reason why I ask was because I was hoping if I got an Xbox 360 I could hook up to the Dell composite input and see if it will play in 720P? I just am not sure what I can hook up to that Composite input since there is only 1 yellow coded jack there. That would be cool if I could end up getting 720P from my Xbox 360 onto this monitor, but I am not holding my breath.

It would look terrible, i tried it with my original xbox. Component is the 3 cable one which is high def. You want VGA which is also high def. Microsoft sells the cables for 40 soemthing bucks. It looks pretty good, but i'll end up with a hdtv in the future I think.

They also include an adapter to get sound from a regular 3.5 mm speaker set.
