Any use a tv instead of a computer monitor ? Whats your thoughts on it ?

Hi guys This is my set up at the momment
http://www.flickr.com/pho..9005534@N02/4994370830/

I have 2 samsung monitors there as you can see but I am geting very anoyed with the space between the two monitors

Anyways...... I have a 42inch Lg flat screen ful HD 1080p with HDMI and computer conections to it so I could use it in the studio if I move the speekers a bit left and a bit right.

My graphics card has HDMI aswell......

In my head I think It would be kick ass to do this instead of the 2 samsungs but I dont know if any one thinks I would be off my head to do this ?

So anyone any thoughts or is any one already useing a flat screen instead of a computer scren that could tell be how they feel about it ?

Thanks to all

So It could be a good Idea ?
HDMI should be ok to use aswell as long as I have the sound from it disabled right ?
I am just hopeing it would be just as clear a picture as the screens I have but huge haha

Hi Norrie... pm sent.

gui-cide is painless...

42" screen that all ;) .. a composer / customer  where I worked for years ago.. he had the walls as his screens and an overhead projector.. BUT he was composing for a lot of string parts..

try it.. see how you get on. I use 2x17" monitors.. long are the days gone of an atari ST and a 14" or was it 12" monochrome monitor (I still have mine.hehe)

So you were successful at getting all three monitors to work at once with your video card? That's great!

best regards,
mike

I had the Lg working through the HDMI on the graphics card and I have ben useing the 2xsamsung on the vga or what ever they are ports so I tryed the LG and one samsung works and both work so should be ok to put the other one in aswell.

1 problem Is going to be mounting the LG to the wall as its Just a giprock wall with not a lot of studs to fit it to and the shelf I have Is the bigest I could fit in and fit the desk in with a slight mod to the desk

If I could I would put the LG just siting there on the shelf like in this pic http://www.flickr.com/pho..9005534@N02/4994370830/

The bass on the lg At the momment is 12inch to stop it tiping forwards and the area on the shelf I can put it siting on is about 6inch so would be too much of an over hang ;(

Only option is to find a way to mount it to the wall some how I dont think I could get another stand like what is attached to the LG but smaller Ive been looking but with no luck ;(

I will get you a pic If I get it all put up soon

Mike I may pm you about some things I saw of interest to me on your web site if thats ok?
I shall do that latter.

Thanks again and take care guys

Its ok I have no cat got a massive dog though.

Anyways I will be buying the bracket in a day or so so I will see how it goes :)

I am sure it will all work out fine :D

At a session in the studio the other day I hooked up my projector to the laptop> It's about 6' wide 4' high! Helped the singer follow the track as you can see the cues coming. 
Projectors are only $500 but they are very loud.
