Is there a noticiable difference if I was to get this? Im using the compont one right now for hd but just wondering if I should spend the 50 bucks to get it.

Does your 360 even support HDMI? I only thought the newer and elite version use HDMI

hmm. I dont have a clue. I figured it would. I dont see an hdmi but I thought it plugged into the AV port and into and hdmi end.

Wow thats a bunch of abosulte bull shit. Fuck microsoft for not putting it on all of them. Fucking cheap bastards.

They didn't put HDMI on most of them until August when they released newer versions. Any new consoles from then on are a good chance to have it. If you don't have a noticeable HDMI port on the back, then you don't have it.

I don't see why you would get mad at MS about it, you didn't research this before you purchased the console. If you purchased before the refresh, and researched it, you would have known that the Elites were really the only ones that had it until August or so.

I wouldn't really bother with the HDMI. If you're really concerned you can just buy the VGA cable since you'd spend an equal amount of money and it will still do 1080p. This is assuming your HDTV has VGA, which most do.

I can't tell the difference between the component and HDMI at all. I just stick with component as my DVD player only has HDMI.

Same here. I have HDMI to a dvd player, component to the xbox and I can't tell a difference from about 6 feet.

component will transfer 720p just fine, svid...not so well. Where hdmi is going to be mandatory, is if you've got PS3 and run the Blue Ray. On my aquos, there is a slight difference in favor of HDMI with directTV and hdmi is rquired for my DVD to upconvert to 720p/1080i....so all my moofies lookin ace!

	All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.
