[QUOTE="Jon Fitzgerald, post: 502187, member: 32220"] I have one of the last Gen of White Imacs that I recently bought before apple changed them to Silver. I was using my Imac as a DVD player and hooking it up to my Samsung HD TV. The adapter and cable cost a bit but at the time I had no alternative DVD player and my Imac screen was too small to see from a far distance. I also have an Xbox 360 Elite that I just recently purchased. My recommendation is just use a TV, I tried once to hook it up to the imac as my girlfriend wanted to watch a show on TV and I found that not only were the graphics obviously lower performance (as it wasn't a HD TV), but the game also suffered from slow down as other users here have reported. I now use my 360's DVD player to watch movies as it works better on my TV. I found that when linking to my Imac the format was not so great often being rather smaller than the full size of the TV screen. [/QUOTE]
