Talking I am so spoiled!



So I got a new computer over the weekend. The old one isn't very old... (less than 1 year old dual core w/XP Media center).

I just recently moved my 37" VIZIO LCD TV into our bedroom, so what better place to plug in the old computer but the 37" screen?!?!?!?!

So I got me a wireless keyboard and mouse and I'm sitting on my bed posting on ZDriver and looking at it on a 37 " flat screen. Sometimes I'm jealous of myself


Rod.

whats the resolution? might look like crap if it isn't a fairly high res display. and when you say d-sub, i assume you mean a HD15 VGA connector. if you meant Mini-DIN, as in S-Video, the image will likely be unusable for computing. works fine for video though.

Resolution....I have no idea...the D-Sub, the little blue connector with the screw holes on each side...it has an HDMI connection also but her laptop does not.
