I really through about doing dual 27"s. Maybe quads, but Id of had to redo my desk quite a bit for that.

Dont do it. Please dont.
Look at the max res those tv's can do, and hten look at the res your running on your smaller screen....
Computers using even the best TV's still look like complete shit compaired to a no name twice fallen off a truck computer monitor.

Ive actually tested those ones out. Its still 1280x something. The quality on them is way way up there. 8ms response time etc. They are more like a monitor with a tv tuner added in. Read the reviews on them also.

Why bother with the larger monitor then? the only reason would be if your blind.
I set my 20.1 to 1280x1024 instead of the native 1680x1050 jsut to see. and well damn I just lost half my realestate.
I cant imagine how big the cursor would be on a 27" screen at that res.

You can adjust everything from font size to icon size etc. I run 1680x1050 and see just fine on this. Ive run 1600x1200 for at least 2 or 3 years before these new monitors, so old hat for me.

My 24" Dell does 1920x1200... Why grab a larger LCD TV Monitor just to have less real estate? Makes no sense... If I added 6 more inches I want the resolution too!

my point was your are handy capped to a 1280x786 by using a TV as a monitor.
I have ran 1600x1200 on 2 19"CRT monitors since the matrox millenium g400 came out. now running dual 20.1 widescreen LCD (FYI at the time the CRTs were much more then I paid for these lcds).

So you will actually lose space, things will jsut be bigger because each pixel is larger to cover to larger surface area.
