Using a HDTV as a computer monitor?

Q. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sharp+-+42%26%2334%3B+Class+/+LCD+/+1080p+/+60Hz+/+HDTV/3142087.p?skuId=3142087&id=1218379763676

As a doorbuster special on Black Friday, that TV will be $199.99 and I figure I would be a moron if I didn't pick that up. I would be using it for a gaming console for awhile, which is no problem, but around income tax time I plan on building myself a gaming computer, and I figure that rather than buy an expensive monitor I would just use this TV as a monitor, assuming this TV has the capability.

Now I know nothing about what would be required to do this. What sort of cables/adapters should I look for, assuming they're necessary at all? Will I need to take the specs of my computer into consideration at all?
The TV does have 4 HDMI inputs. So is that all I would need? HDMI ran from my computer to the TV?

A. Look on the back of your graphics cards. Is it blue. if so that is vga. If it is a tan color that is dvi.
you would need to get a dvi-hdmi connector
like the one found here

if you have a vga. I am not sure about the adapter. If you tv has a pc hook up look for what native resolution it supports


Whats the better deal on tvs?
Q. I'm looking for a small flat screen tv. I want a great picture and I want it to be cheap. I saw Best Buy has two black friday deals..
Option #1: Sharp 42" Class LCD 1080p HDTV..for $199....
Option #2: Dynex 24" Class LCD 1080p HDTV for $79.
Twenty four inches would be big enough for me, but does Dynex make good tv's? I also saw Walmart had several deals:
Option #3: Emerson 40" LCD tv..$248
Option #4: Samsung 32" LCD..$278
Option #5: Emerson 32": LCd..$188

As you can see.. I have too many options. Let me know which one I should get and why.

A. All the tvs you have looked at are the bargain price tv. They do not last long and would not recommend any of them. If you read yahoo questions, you will notice that 95% of tv problems comes from those bargain price tv. Keep in mind, you get what you pay for. Panasonic and Samsung are the top brand for reliability. Hope this will help you out.
