Xbox360 Warrenty info?

[saitrix]

Hi,

I am looking at buying an xbox 360 second hand and I am wondering what the deal is with the 3 year warrenty if I do? I was looking at repairing one with the rrod but it doesn't seem to save me much money at all compared to buying a working 2nd hand one.

Also I will be connecting it to my monitor, which I realise I need a vga cable, I have been looking about and have found some cables much cheaper than the MS official one. Is there any recommended makes or should I just lump up the cash for an official one?

Also is there any accessories that people really recommend getting?

Thanks, will go for official then.

One more thing, my monitor is 19" 16:10, with a max res of 1440x900. Does anyone know whether the native resolution is now supported? I can only find info on the net from 2006.

Awesome, just what I want to hear. Now just need to get one.
