hi guys stuck here, bought the acer AL2216w 22' inch lcd for $900 3 months ago... its a great lcd monitor! I was wondering if I were to buy myself a ps3/xbox360/wii can I connect any of these consoles to my lcd monitor??

I think it comes with a vga port which I'm currently connecting to my aspire notebook and the dvi port or something not too sure if comes with the hdmi port but I read somewhere the lcd monitor can support hdmi/hdcp stuffs?? Also I'm planning to turn the monitor into a tv and can somebody reckon me to buy some good tvbox/tv tuner?? I have no idea whats the best items to buy out there and this is the best site to ask questions... I'm considering to buy a lcd tv instead but this monitor would go to waste! I should have bought the lcd tv in the 1st place but I (noob) seriously have no idea I can actually connect my notebook to a lcd tv... :S:S:S... such a shame!

Anyway so I hope the tv thingy can work out on my monitor and of course I wouldnt wan to compromise on visual experience as I read somewhere lcd monitor arnt good in displaying tv content?? Correct me if I'm wrong...

One last thing; you guys think now's the best time to buy the game consoles or wait for sometime longer? And whats the best price offer the consoles right now and where I should et them?? I'm leaning towards the ps3 cos it comes with a blu-ray player and probably I can hook up and watch movies on my lcd monitor?? Btw, I reside in JB and so its hard to find any stores selling these consoles...

Thanks in advance...
