Why an XBox didn't plug into a VGA monitor out of the box is still beyond me...
I bet they had to go out of their way to remove the feature...
then all xbox-vga adapters are just getting your vga to look like a TV...
notice... you will probably get worse output (more pixelated) then a TV. UNLESS you can use the HDTV stuff through your VGA (they mentioned about 85% was it that could?). But it will NOT be higher resolution...
So I would find out what the resolution for the HDTV 1080i (or whatever) and see if your monitor handles it... If not, I would guess this is a waste.

Actually you are correct. Micro$oft when to great lengths to make sure the xbox was not to be perceived as a simple PC (which it is). They still don't support a keyboard or mouse, even though it would help lots of the software sales of FPS games.
As for the Xbox VGA box linked...I emailed this company when the product first debuted (was mentioned in xbox magazine). Its a true component to rgb transcoder. Just as good as the xbox vga transcoder/adapter Ken Gasper was making for the xboxhacker.net site for about the same price...but this one looks like it has all the bells and whistles (including a 480i upscanner)!

This is a MUST buy!!!.....I can't tell you how amazing this box works on my VGA monitor.
I have another convertor that I picked up for almost as much a few month ago. The images were grey/muddy....and sucked.
This one works exactly as advertised. I have a VGA Box for Dreamcast and this one works just as well.
I purchased mine directly from the manufacturer in China....their follow up and delivery went very smoothly.
This is well worth the bucks!
