I am due for a new PC. I have an HP media center PC connected to a 22" acer monitor. Need advice before upgrading. PC is getting old.

1. Should I get another monitor (would like 26") or an HDTV with built in tuner.

If connected to HDMI on new pc will an HDTV allow me to work and pc and still watch program in smaller window. Will I have to get a box from comcast cable compay to hook up on that tv. I've heard they are making changes and all tv's will need a box.
