of course anything is 'possible' but most is not practical. for the cost, you might as well get a new display.

Not possible? Not worth the cost?

Use one of these:

$22, gives you analog stereo out from the optical S/PDIF port. Enjoy!

fucking this.

119$ for atv 2 (actually i msgd a guy on kijiji so i might get an open box for 45$)
10$ HDMI to DVI cable
20$ Digital Coax & Optical Toslink to R/L Stereo Audio Converter

Lets say 150$ plus taxes and shippings to Canada.
200$ for a dedicated XBMC setup.
Wayy better than a SDTV with an Xbox on it.
I'll just velcro everything to the back of the monitor.

Thanks ned.

[pooh]

fucking this.

Not too many times I saw this language on these forums

well Ned Scott just saved me over 300$ on my car insurance by switching to GEICO. So I'm pretty happy... you know.. about the savings.
