Whats the pc picture like??

Been looking at a TFT tv with built in monitor connector.. i know it won't
be amazing for games but don't know if it will be good enough for using
windows etc..

TIA.

Depends. Does it have DVI? If so, you might well be okay, particularly if
you can find out what the native res is (I think most are 1024).

Personally, I'd buy a decent TFT (with DVI) that costs about the same and
then spend a little extra on a TV card for the PC. You can get a decent
1280x1024 TFT with DVI for about the same as I've seen those TFT TVs go for
(in my country, at least).
