HD doesn't go over S-video though, right?

I believe that is correct. It will go over component, but S-Video was established long before they thought of the U.S. standard of HD. But I could be wrong.

And the VGA port on the laptop is most likely a VGA out port so that you can display the laptop on an external monitor... not so that you can display something on the laptop's display. In fact, the S-video port is probably the same thing.

Yes, that's what I thought. No harm asking.

I alternate between:

30" Samsung CRT HDTV (totally awesome)

21" Gateway LCD HDTV Monitor (even MORE totally awesome, but I get sick of sitting in the computer desk chair)

I recently downgraded from a 65" Mitsu due to our kid and space limitations.

Definitely no HD over S-video. You need component video or VGA for 360 HD.

As for the original question, yes, I have HDTV for my 360.

locking this one because a poll was created - and the poll is more in tone with the thread request.
