    I was wondering if there was any way I could use my m1530 screen as a display for my xbox 360? I would be plugging it in via hdmi.

    Negative. Not unless you disconnect the LCD cable and fit it with an adapter to accept your 360 output ;)

    That sucks.. I used to use my Dell 20" Widescreen monitor with my computer and 360 until I got the DLP. I don't think I will be taking the m1530 apart anytime soon though :p Maybe I should just use the 15" 1024x768 from my dad's 7 year old HP haha
