Dell has a 20" Widescreen as well
Link
2)When u connect a WS to the 360, u can select the different screen resolution, .e.g 720p or 1080i... these res are already in WS format.
3) I thought Chinsc is doing a bulk on VGA cable?
4) If i'm not wrong, that connector that u're referring to can only be found in Japanese TVs
5) Most WS are LCDs or Plasma's right? But u guys were discussing during PGR3 tonight about some SONY WEGAs that are in the WS format..so I dunno.

p/s Most ppl claimed that the VGA cables causes the colors to be washed out. Since I connect using component, I don't know how true that is. U might wanna ask Zakaath, he connects using D-SUB inputs.

Nope, the 20" 2005FPW has D-SUB, D-VI..not sure if it has S-VIDEO and COMPOSITE.

But if u're just using for PC and 360, then it should suffice...BUT if u're thinking of adding a PS3 later then u will need to buy some kinda switch box.

Actually, I've had bad experiences with DELL but lots of ppl have had no problems too. I personally will not buy anything from them in the future.

Does the 20" version have component input?

Nope, supposedly the VGA cable by MS produces washed out colors..However, ppl have claimed that the VGA made by MONSTER has no such problems. Read the forums at http://www.hardforums.com. You'll have so sift through the thread.

I think that's true for 3rd party VGA cable. Supposedly the official VGA cable is excellent. But the price is....aiyah....over RM100, which is quite pricey just for a cable....plus I don't think the official VGA cable is available around here.....

You need to use the components ..not the composite or s-video.

I'm using Dell's 24" widescreen lcd too, was thinking to get a ps2 hook with it, just to ask, the picture quality is it that bad when connect direct to the lcd?
