There are devices which can take a video signal (RGB/Composite/HDMI/etc.) and stream it straight into your iMac via USB 2.0 or FireWire, but they're only meant for using it as a TV (from a cable box, BluRay player, etc.); I think you'd lose too much definition trying to stream Xbox graphics through them...

The I/O is actually fast enough, but the conversion tech just isn't up to it, yet.
For my purposes as an engineering undergraduate; Windows is respectable (& generally necessary), Linux is admirable (& often useful), OS X is enjoyable (& requires no further justification, although plenty could be given)!
