    Hi Guys,

    I was just wondering if anyone has used a HD TV as their monitor and if so what was your experience?

    I used my DELL W2600 (26") LCD TV as a monitor for a while, it was perfect for gaming and viewing videos / photos etc but with everyday stuff like office applications it was just too big. The games of pro evo soccer were unbelievably clear with the DVI connector.

    Just out of interest, why too big? I would have thought for applications such as those it would be perfect. More room to view the document when you can slide your palettes out to the edge... no?

    I guess it depends how you have it set up. I had it on a small desk with a wired keyboard and mouse. It would've been grand if i could sit back from it a few feet but the size of my room constricted that.
