OK, I am moving out of my own apartment in the next couple of days and am moving into a smaller place. I am going to have my own room and I'm not going to let strangers use my computer or $1500 plasma.

Why are you even asking that question?
Because of gfx problems, I can maintain my computer, but I don't know how it will affect games and the suchLuigiMcOwnage wrote:

Nature is a powerful force. Those who seek to subdue nature, never do so permanently.

Mmm I think so. Just humour him.
I have a HTPC hooked onto mine, its fine despite what 'LCD fanbois' will tell you.
Just a note if you're pissing about with resolutions: Just because its a HDTV doesn't mean the computer input is capable of a full 1280x720@60 or 1920x1080@30.
Crappy first gen (it has VGA ffs) Still it shits over LCD.

Yeah, if you leave it there for an hour. You do know what a screensaver is, right? It saves the screen.SealXo wrote:

not cool
as long as your gfx card can handle the super high resolution necessary, i say go for it.
I'll sometimes hook my PC up to my 42 plasma. Its great if you have a few friends around, but too much of an hassle for day to day computing. And the res on my 20 inch screen is anyhow the same
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
Most 19 inch have a higher resolution than this plasma or LCD or whatever. Its only going to be bigger, not better quality.S.Lythberg wrote:

Like this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu … =MO-050-SA , half the size but better resolution (unless its full 1080).

why not!?
while an extreme case, it can happen.

just make sure you turn down the contrast (off of torch mode) and turn on image rotation or equivalent.
have fun..
