I've recently gotten into the market for a new display for my laptop and Xbox 360.
I'm looking for a 20"-22" display that I can use with my notebook and my Xbox 360 and maybe even use it as a TV (but that isn't important). I have a launch version of the Xbox 360, so it doesn't have HDMI, neither does my laptop. So, what I'm looking for is a display that supports component AV (Xbox 360 HD).
Remember, the most important thing is that I can hook up and play my Xbox 360 using Component HD Audio/Video.
Thanks for any recommendations!
Oh, my price range is $200-$400.

I dunno if your willing to spend more but something like this is worth the money:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824002359
full 1080p resolution and one of the best TN panels.
the 20-22" monitors are almost always TN panels with only few exceptions and they have bad quality for color (good for extreme gamers due to very fast response time but thats the only good point) what you want to find is a IPS or PVA panel.
20-22" TV's use lower resolution so not so great for sitting right up there to use it, dont let a monitor with no component turn you away, just get a VGA adapter for your XBox. -
That looks pretty good.
I guess I should say I would go higher then $400, within reason of course.
Any others? -

Id recommend to anybody what I have/use my 37" Westinghouse it was 1000$ shipped and the best deal ever, but now they have gone up to 1700$ and are hard to find
Has like 8 video inputs, PBP, PIP, full 1080 ect.
Id browse newegg.com and possibly frys.com and look at what they have, you can use widescreengamingforum.com as a referense our wiki there has panel types listed for most major monitors and we have a ton of user reviews and information on monitors.
Im ViciousXUSMC on that forum too but I dont go there often anymore since I got the monitor of my dreams.
