You can't connect an XBox (360 ) to a PC.
You can connect an XBox/Xbox 360 to you PC monitor if you have the right cables. This will depend on what inputs are available on your monitor and you may have to purchase additional xbox cables.
You can connect your XBox 360 *wired* controllers to the PC and the Xbox 360 (not the wireless)
You can view pictures and music on your PC if you connect the Xbox 360 to the same network and install the sharing application.
There is no official/legal way to build applications for the original XBox (and any answers alnong those lines will be removed from these forums) unless you have a publishing agreement with Microsoft.
The may soon be a legal way to build .Net applications for the Xbox 360 see http://www.thezbuffer.com/articles/369.aspx however this is early days and lots of the details are not availalbe yet. If you get a publishing deal with Microsoft then you can of course do it all officially.
