I am looking for a monitor that can connect to my Macbook Pro, PS2, and Xbox 360. I have looked over various monitors and I cannot find one with all of the ports that I need. I am looking for a monitor that is around 22'' and no more than 200.00 USD. Thanks :)
 
I would have to politely disagree with the HP recommendation. Do some searching on monitors in your size and price range and you'll probably see a lot of positive reviews on LG monitors.

I think you should strongly consider choosing a 23' monitor since this is the sweet spot for getting a higher resolution than you would otherwise obtain. Check into this model specifically: W2361V or VG (matte or gloss). The colors are vibrant and uniform with no bleeding. Besides a fantastic image, it's got multiple connection options including HDMI. I've got two on my desk flanking my MBP.

Oh, I should mention that it will run you approx. $30 over your budget (see Best Buy), although you might find a bargain online. In this price range, there's nothing better.

This guy knows what he's saying, my recommendation is absolutely useless.
/sarcasm.

The newest HP monitors are great and very Apple like, I have the 20in
version and its great, but this monitor will suite your needs.
