Hi,

I was checking around for some Apple Cinema Display and I have found some good deals in some local listings, yeah I'm aware that they are pricey but I havent find a nice monitor that might be cheaper and still keep good looks on it.

So I thought of using a TV instead, Im aware that maybe I wouldnt be able to use it as close a monitor, but on the other side I get a fully functional TV (32")...

However, Ive heard complaints of text looking crappy on TV's and im not sure about it. Also, I got a new macbook (aluminum) and I need to deal with converters as DP TVs are not that common and i would guess that the first models are expensive.

I would basically go DVI/HDMI for the TV, and I hope I can keep up with nice resolutions up to 1080p Any one has tried this with the new macbooks and could explain their experience with such?

Thanks in advance
