RE: [OT] looking for "sexy" PC case...

["Des Gibbons" <des@xxxxxxx>]

a TV is not very good for general use, perfect for watching dvd/video/jpegs
etc, but you don't want to have to stare at it for long times, and you will
be using 800x600 max at 60 Hz. Maybe if you have a 100Hz TV it may be more
useful, but I have no experience of them.
