    I don't know honestly, I have no need to myself. But if you do it means it takes up more screen real estate. And then we come back to what I was talking about before. You have 1920x1080 on the TV and the same 1920x1080 on a Monitor. Both have the same layout, but on the TV you have to bump the text size to see it, reducing the viewable area for other things.

    Viewsonic 24" 1020x1080 full 1080p. find that fine to be honest. anything bigger than that and i think my keyboard and mouse would need longer cables / wireless.

    i am connected to a 36" tv which i will sometimes run 14 on but usually thats my ps3 / xbox/ movie while crafting or waiting on shouts

    I have two syncmaster T220, samsung. Widescreen sucks balls for anything but movies. 16:10 is what you want for everything else, if you ask me.

    Isn't 16x10 widescreen? It's a little boxier than 16x9 but still wide.

    If text appears blurry on the T.V. there is a chance you've set the display resolution higher then the television's native resolution. Thought I might point that out.

    Or it's too far away, or it's ANY resolution that's not native. Or the TV is doing some per-processing to the image that you don't want for PC games.

    I guess it is widescreen; but it isn't what movies use, so when watching them you get two black bars on the top and bottom. That and its cheaper to make 16:9, that's why they changed it.

    Anyhow, yeah, 16:10 > 16:9 if you ask me.

    Nope, the resolution defaulted to it. Then again, it's not exactly a newer T.V. (~20 inch screen running 1360x768, lower than my old Inspiron 1545's resolution.)

    Once outside they all pair off and hand in hand they leave

    If you are going to play other games such as FPS games its better to avoid using televisions as the ghosting and graphics lag are worse than a normal pc monitor and will affect you playing fast paced online games such as FPS. If you just play RPG/MMO games then televisions are your best bet as there are some great deals for 32 - 42" HD televisions at the moment.

    I play with 2 x Asus 24" dual screen 4tw!
