    Can you hook up a Xbox 360 to a E1705?

    If you can, then how? lol.

    I only have a SD TV so... it would be really nice if I could use the computer.

    SD TV is probably a better option.

    you could get a TV tuner for your e1705 and connect xbox through that but there might be a delay in the video image from the xbox and that can make games unplayable.

    if you have an external monitor there are also special boxes with multiple inputs that allow you to essentially use your monitor for a number of devices incl your pc (basically - input selector boxes)
