Title: Using a TV as a monitor Post by: Swordpoker on April 01, 2008, 05:52:58 PM I've been fancying a 32" monitor for a while - get some proper multi tabling done 8)
Is it feasible to use a new funky HD TV as a monitor? It would be cheaper to buy and I know some of them have a pc input socket on them. Any drawbacks with using a TV? Title: Re: Using a TV as a monitor Post by: bigalhx1 on April 01, 2008, 06:01:03 PM ;popcorn;

Looks like it's not worth it because of the resolution.

In reality I never really play more than 4 at a time but the tables are nice and big, no squinting required.

If you have an overlap with 8 tables that defeats the purpose of me buying one. |
