>I use Pundit with SIS drivers from - you can achieve small amount of
overscan using SisCtrl tool. There you can streatch and move picture. It is
still not as large as real TV, but it eliminates black bars.

connect it to some fancy LCD/plasma TV.

case-bending and modifying a CPU cooler exhaust with a saw.

old core Celerons 2.4 or 2.6. Case fan could be a source of some noticeable
noise too depending of components you put in.

As I said, this is from memory, so I'm probably wrong.
