lcd tv or lcd display?

X24 · 12-08-2006, 03:26 AM

Well for christmas, i get $700 or so to spend on w/e i want, and i want to spend between $200-$500 on a monitor. Well, i see i can get an lcd tv for not much more then an lcd monitor. This would be nice becasue then i can also hook up my consols like my gamecube, ps2 and hopefully a Wii if i can get one sometime, and also watch normal tv.

but the tv resolution won't be any more then 1366 x 768, which i think might make it not look anywhere near as crisp as a normal monitor would.

so what should i go with? a 19" WS LCD monitor, 20.1" LCD M., 22" LCD M., 23" LCD TV or a 27" LCD TV?

I would like to know that too, I know that there is some people here running 32" LCD tv's as their monitors for PC's. SO I would like to know how its working out for you. Is the resolution any good?
