95% + of the newer flat screen TV's have a computer VGA input.
Ours in the Living room has one and I occasionally (rarely) hook up my laptop tp try out a presentation etc.
All you need to do is hookup a VGA male to male, plus an extension to it, and have it ready for use.
Than when you need to do it, you hook it up, click your TV menu to PC and watch what you have on Laptop.
Works for me. Stewart At 03:08 PM 3/16/2009, you wrote:
This most closely sounds like my day. But all three of these are done in Firefox via tabs. Even if FF had tear-off tabs, how long would it take to win-tab to another window? 2-3 seconds tops. How does that add up to being a "time saver"? Did you have something to do that extra 15 seconds a day? An entertainment monitor in the computer room is a good idea. But a slightly different subject I think. It would be much easier to compare drawing side by side on a 40" monitor than two 19" monitors, but I can imagine that would be very expensive. However, that doesn't mean you _prefer_ two monitors, only that you can't _afford_ a larger single monitor.
