Which cable(s)

Hi people, this is my first visit to these forums and I have two simple questions for you (hopefully).

i have just ordered a samsung LE26R41BDX HD ready tv for my room. I want to run my xbox 360 through it and also use it as my monitor for my pc.

Firstly, the 360 comes with a HD component cable, but would a VGA cable produce better quality? And secondly, what cable would I need to use as my pc monitor.


thanks in advance


Brim!

As it's a TV, it will be built for a refresh rate of 25mS or better. LCD TV screens are rarely as good as LCD PC monitors.
