Is much better than watching on the TV and the sound coming from your computer desk ;)
I will however make one statement against the idea, and that is to not use it as a monitor via HDMI.. I find it very difficult the read anything on my 42" TV.. the definition of lines etc, and font is pretty appalling on my TV, having said that it is an old Panasonic Viera.. but this still also occurs on my
