TVs as monitors

[meghatronic]

How easy are lcd tv's to use instead of a monitor...

Quite tempted by the price of some 27"-30" models that output at 1920x1200. But I imagine them being less practical than a dedicated monitor, e.g. 3007.

dot pitch will be significantly lower. Afaik there are none which output 1920x1200, this is a 16:10 ratio. Widescreen TV's are 16:9 (1920x1080), and I don't know any 1080p TV's in these smaller sizes.

Anyway that aside, a 3007WFP will have just under double the pixel density of an equivalent 30" 1080 TV, i.e. you are going to want to sit back, way back.

Me bad - I meant 1920x1080.

3007 it is then! OUCH!
