Take a look at Dell's widescreen LCD monitors. They have a 24" model that's very nice. I'm not sure if it has the component RGB connection but it does have DVI.

I also own an Xbox 360 and it was my primary reaon for upgrading to HDTV. It comes down to what you want to spend?

Known brands will definetly give you a better PQ than a generic but also cost easily twice as much. Basically, do you want a 23" Samsung or Sharp, or a 32" off brand. I found a good off brand at SAM's Club that had a good picture, Vizio L32.

If your looking for a smaller LCD though, you should be able to find a 20 -23" for a resonable price. I recommend Samsung, it is also what Microsoft uses as theyre demo models for the 360, so there you know what your getting, i.e. go to EBgames and they have a 360 hooked up to a Samsung for you to try. Sharp aquos also is extremely good.

One piece of advice, smaller generic LCD's tend to look worse that larger generic LCD's. I could easily find a few 30 -32" genric LCDs that looked good, but I couldn't find any genric 20-23" lcds that had good PQ. If your looking for a smaller LCD I definetly suggest going with a known brand.

Tell us what your looking to spend and many people will come on here a post suggestions, but it truly comes down to your price range and what you can afford.
