Enh... none of the free PVR software is really set up for Canada at this time with Zap2It stopping TV listing downloads in September, so I thought why not. I don't user that PC for anything else. My work machine is upstairs :-)

Me not want.

That's a 52" LCD TV but the resolution is only 1920 x 1080. I'm sitting here looking at a 22" monitor that will happily run up to 1600 x 1200. The pixels on that Sharp are going to be huge - my monitor has 90 ppi, but the Sharp only has 42 ppi. So you'll need to sit a long way back from it. Fine if you want to do your image editing from the comfort of the sofa, but otherwise what's the point?

Actually I don't use it for editing, I'm fully aware of its limitations. I use it for the PVR and some surfing. I just thought it would be interesting to show that a large LCD could be used as a onitor
