Using Xbox 360 connected via VGA and PS3 via HDMI (haven't used the PS3 on the Dell as yet). Oops forgot about the Wii (only arrived the other day after being ordered end of Nov...) Got a component cable for this so 480p?

Here's the HD specs of everyone i know including me. Thats a whopping 3 people!

Me: HiDef LCD TV 19" - 37", xbox360 set to 720p via component, MediaPC connected via VGA @ 1360x768

Mate 1: HiDef LCD TV 19" - 37", PS3 set to 720p

Mate 2: HiDef LCD TV 40" - 50", Xbox set to 1080p via component, PS3 set to 1080p via HDMI, HTPC connected via VGA @ 1920x1080

I also run a Dell 2405FPW PC monitor at 1920x1200
 
2) HiDef LCD TV 19" - 37"

26" Sharp Aquos (can't for the life of me remember the model), 720p through Component.
I did use my 360's VGA for a quick test but I didn't really see much difference and prefered to keep VGA port free for my PC.
 
Using a Sharp 42D1E, and connecting everything to it through a Sony 5200ES reciever to upscale everything to 1080p and then pass through HDMI, makes life a hell of a lot easier with this tv having a little limited connectivity.

LG 37LC3R
Xbox 360 - 1280x720 (VGA)
PC - 1366x768 (HDMI/DVI)

Brilliant TV for its price (£650) only thing thats a let down is the SD broadcasts, but thats the same with any HDTV really. HD feeds look gorgeous though :)

Glad you like it :)

The thing with DTV is it only accepts standard TV resolutions (480p, 720p etc) but it takes the input as a true component colour set VGA input (which is what the 360 uses) rather than fudging a VGA input that takes the VGA standard colour set input by cropping the blacks resulting often in non brilliant whites and always results in non true colour reproduction. Unless your TV accepts component VGA (Like the DTV mode on the LGs) VGA will never look as good as component if you are a pick bugger.

Samsung 940MW 19" LCD TV/Monitor running at 1280x768 (which I guess is a rough equivalent to 720p). Oh, Xbox 360 is my gaming platform of choice.
