Even IF Xbox 360 didn't support D-DVI, you cans still connect it to an Apple Cinema via a VGA-DVI adaptor connected to the Mini-DVI adaptor. We tried this and it worked. Most, if not all versions of DVI is backwards compatible with VGA. Read up on it on Wikipedia. Next time think before saying stuff like that. And Little Einstein (name suits), don't be a loser.
You are thinking of a DVI-VGA adapter which comes with most DVI video cards and only cost a dollar or two.
But I would love to see you prove this on a 30" Apple Cinema Display. Reply when you have made your video and have uploaded it for all to view.

Hmmm.... A mini display port to VGA adaptor.... those idiots at Apple don't know what they're talking about. I mean, they only make Cinema Displays. Wow. People are really dumb.

Wow, they're even dumber. Here's a mini-DVI to DVI adaptor... again made by Apple themselves. XD
As you can see, HDMI _IS_ backwards compatible with DVI-D. Do some research next time before calling me dumb.
Then explain to everyone why the video doesn't come through correctly, then after all of that you can say I was right. Don't worry you can keep saying you know what your talking about and I won't respond anymore.
"Xbox 360 to Apple 30" Cinema Display"
Why not show a video of yourself using a VGA -> Mini Display Port adaptor or HDMI+DVI-MiniDisplay to connect it to YOUR monitor. If you actually have an Xbox or Cinema. If you don't, and CAN'T make this video, it proves you don't have a Cinema or Xbox, and that your argument is invalid. I've been using Xboxes for years, and I know a thing or two about them.
It's just sad to me that you do not get it, nor did you ever have the intention try it for yourself. You just came on here all "wanna be smart" because you read Wikipedia and don't even own the items in question, Which are 30" Apple Cinema Display & Xbox 360 and a Female DVI-D to HDMI adapter... Not the APPLE DISPLAY PORT.
Seriously I am done, keep responding and people will see you do not have the means to try nor prove your Wikipedia learning. Real world tests sometimes prove Wikipedia wrong, but only someone with experience would know that.
First one is Xbox HD VGA Cable -> VGA to DVI adaptor -> DVI to MiniDisplay
That don't work? Then simply:
Xbox's HDMI output -> HDMI to DVI adaptor -> DVI to Mini Display port.
Or even Xbox HD VGA -> Apple's VGA to Mini Display Port adaptor.
Now, smart alek, look at this: http://store.apple.com/au/product/MB571Z/A
Duh.

Those products are geared towards connecting to a Mac, but they will work in connecting to your Cinema. I have explained time and time again how to do this. If you yourself can't make a video of you doing this, you can explain why it doesn't upload. And I didn't come on here to post something from Wikipedia, I came on to tell people that it was possible so they could get the most out of their display or Xbox. I didn't learn this on Wikipedia. I just had to find a reference so maybe you'd stop and listen for a bit, instead of ranting on. You haven't even posted a SINGLE intructable, which leads me to believe your just a compulsive comment critic. Do something productive or I report you to mods for being rude and offensive.
