Hey Paul -  I've been using my 32" Samsung HDTV as my monitor for a few months now - there's no way I could ever go back to a smaller or less quality monitor. Even for apps like VUE, just moving objects around is so much easier to see. I set the source (on the tv) to "Just Scan" and the display fits the screen perfectly.  So now I use it as both my TV and pc monitor.  I'm going to add a second smaller display - like a 19" or something,  to use with Painter and Photoshop which take advantage of dual displays.
