    i don't know if dvi is possible but you can buy vga convertors which would connect to the older 15 pin monitor connector forget what it's called

    you have to buy a vga adapter. google xbox2vga, that's what i have.

    then you just need a dvi to vga connection. they're tiny, i got one with my gfx card.

    How's the latency with those? like is there a noticable delay between moving on the controller and what updates to the screen... just something I've been wondering about.

    no latency at all.

    resolution is dependent on the game itself i think but its better than on the tv. i had done a bit of research and was told it was the best out there.
    worth every penny so far, looks sweet on my 21" monitor.

    edit: here's the website. their email support is excellent. took about a week for delivery.
