I've been thinking this over for a couple of months and i think im going to ask you guys about it...im looking at building a new system and i was wondering if the resolution on a HDTV would be par to a 21" computer monitor.....i was going to just use the HDTV and have a home entertainment center along with a great PC....but i've heard from a lot of ppl that the TV resolution sucks compared to a PC monitor b/c the monitor gets more pixels per square inch....any advice on this subject would be great...thanks a lot

HDTVs vary. In widescreen mode, you might get 1350x768 give or take, if you get one with 720P mode. No, the resolution isn't as good unfortunately, not for running windows. TV will look amazing though, and you can have one hell of a gaming display ;)
