okay, after a long while i finally have enough money for and xbox360 and a bit more

the only real issue i have with this is my monitor and speakers, and whether it's worth upgrading them, because i have a generic 17inch monitor from 'targer visionary' (some european import) and some 2.0 stereo speakers

i was just wondering if this setup is good enough, the image quality of the screen is fine for me on pc gaming, but i dont have a kvm type switch for the speakers (going on the assumption they give you a 3.5mm adapter with the 360vga cable)

if not i can get together a few hundred pounds for monitor upgrade... something i could use with my pc aswell hopefully... so wondering if it's worth it to find a cheap second hand 20-26 inch widescreen monitor (upto say £400) and another sound setup for seperate speakers for xbox?
 
okay, thanks for the replies, i'll be sticking with this monitor for a while then

but... is there a type of 3.5mm switch on the market i can purchase so i dont have to change the speakers from pc to xbox each time i use the other?

edit: or could it be possible to just plug both into the speakers using the y-routers for 3.5mm jacks

okay thanks again for the replies

i'm space limited by a 5.1 setup so best i can do is a good 2.1, and will try to upgrade to whatever seems best in *** future for a monitor (with lcd prices falling considerably in the near future)
