Console games on an lcd monitor

Which monitors would support such a thing and which would be cheapest? I'd love to be able to hook up my xbox to my gaming rig's monitor.
 
The best way to do this would be to go and ask for a VGA Adpter for the XBox. If you don't know what this is, go into your local computer/games shop, and say that you want to hook up your XBox to your PC monitor, and they will know what you want.

The other (and not so good) way to do this would be with a Video In on your graphics card, or a TV Tuner card, but neither will give you a nice enough picture, especially compared to a VGA Adapter 🙂

My Cornea CT1702T has S-video, VGA, RCA, DVI, and coaxial inputs

I use the S-video for the PS2, RCA for the gamecube, DVI for the computer, coaxial for cable tv, and VGA occasionally to connect extra computers

The console games look great and so does my desktop. Theres some USB and firewire markings on one of the side panels but no ports so I'm guessing that maybe they'll add it to future models.

Getting a monitor that supports it can be one of your alternatives.
