    Hey!

    OK so I've been looking to buy a new monitor for a while and am leaning towards this one as its meant to be quality

    http://komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=324783&s=sc

    Now i shall be using it as a pc and xbox 360 screen - grand job just get vga cable for xbox and dvi for pc.

    My query is, is it possible to get like a vga adaptor so that i could run a tv line into it? like a tuner box or something? and if so could u link me one? just the normal terestrial cable. Would love if there was a way i could use it as a tv as well!

    Thanks a million,
    Shane

    That particular LCD won't allow you to watch terrestrial tv -- it doesn't have a tuner for analogue terrestrial.

    I had a look at Dell's monitors but could only find LCDs with inputs for composite, S-video, etc. With these, you could connect a set-top-box [a Sky digibox, for example] and watch terrestrial channels.

    I think this is what you're looking for.
