[QUOTE="funkstar, post: 290437, member: 14311"] One advantage of a monitor vs. a TV is that it will be pisel perfect. You send it the correct native resolution and thats what it displays. Many TVs have a native resolution of 1392x768, but you can have dificulty actually sending that to them. Samsung used to be particularly bad at this. If you sent it anything other than 1920x1080 it would scale it to that resolution then back to the native resolution of the panel. You can also get overscan problems where the edges of the picture are not visible. These problems are not there with monitors. I have a 20" Viewsonic in the bedroom, would like to replace it with a 24"+ though. Perhaps one of Dells new 16:9 monitors that are on the way, i think the first one is going to be a 26". [/QUOTE]
