Do yourself a real favor, get a TV which can serve as a monitor or accept VGA or preferably DVI input and forget trying to for example adapt the output from your computer to your TV. I also strongly suggest getting a tuner capable of ATSC and QAM (which are the two most common HDTV formats, one for broadcast, the other for cable). ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
