I'm looking for a new screen for my Mac that can display both signal from my Mac and from a composite or s-video source. I want to be able to play my xbox on a nice screen, and I don't want to have to buy both a TV and a screen. I've seen a few screens like this made by Sharp but they don't seem to make them anymore... Here is what I want in this screen:
- At least 17"
- Composite video input
- Digital video in (or would analog be ok?)
- I really want a widescreen as I have one now and I like it
- At least 1280 x 1024 resolution (I really want 1600 x something or more but these are hard to find I think)
- I don't need a TV tuner
Any ideas? Or am I looking for a product that doesn't exist? It seems to me that this would be easy for my to find except for the composite video inputs.

No it's not possible because the TV tuner adds a delay of several seconds to the video signal.

There is no delay with the PCI Alchemy TV tuner card.
I imagine that you have a PowerMac, that is, PCI slots there 
I remember that Philips has some nice monitor that features video in. Shall look for it.
