Post PC Monitor...
I'm getting a nice new swish PC and want something bold and exciting for a monitor.
I currently have a 19" TFT monitor so anythings going to be an improvement.
I've been looking into getting a TV/Monitor. Any views on this?
I hear there's some trouble with resolutions, but, your get HD, cheap price, larger screen and freeview.
Also, i can use my PS3 with it etc... with extra HDMI ports.
Views???

(Also, Ebuyer has real cheap screens, whaddaya think!?!)

32" is ridiculous, and guaranteed it has a slow refresh rate.

A 21 to 22 inch monitor is more than enough, has everything you'd need, and is a lot cheaper.

Get a 1080p LCD with HDMI and VGA inputs. Multiples of those are up to you. Inchwise, listen to Grif.

Get something with a small native resolution so you can run games easily in your correct resolution...17" FTW!

Ok, I'm thinking 26" then.
I need to be able to use it as a TV too you see...
17" is waaaay to small for my needs.
I need to be able to use it for a pc and then from a distance on a sofa in my room....
Thats why i need a decent Larg-ish HD TV. I would get a large monitor with HD and TV input but they are so expensive that way round... =/

EDIT: Scratch it, i'll go for a nice large 28" TFT monitor with HD etc...
That should sort out any resolution problems and help with pc gaming etc as well as working as a fine TV =]

Now i just need to get a new PC...
