I have a question:

I'm pretty sure I want to go with this monitor. I don't forsee a problem hooking it up to my computer. It will run at 1680X1050 or whatever.

What I want to do is also set it up for TV, infact HDTV.

Now I assume there are a few ways I can do this:

1) Internal tuner in the computer
2) External tuner
3) Cable box

I don't have a cable box and don't really want to go through that whole hassle. I'm content with the channels I get now. I did find this on the gateway website:

[url=http://accessories.gateway.com/AccessoryStore/Consumer+Electronics_381930/Digital+TV_381941/Digital+Television+Accessories_375698/12684996_ProdDetail?http://accessories.gateway.com/AccessoryStore/Consumer+Electronics_381930/Digital+TV_381941/Digital+Television+Accessories_375698/12684996_ProdDetail:acf3d]freraking long link[/url:acf3d]

So it says res up to 1280 x1024 resolution, which i don't think is a standard HDTV resolution, but that would be high res, wouldn't it?

What I'm asking I guess is with that box, can I set up HDTV with the HDTV LCD gateway monitor? looks like it only takes s video and composite, which means that it probably would be totally high def, right?

Anyone know of other high def tuners that I could use for this purpose?
