Does anyone have any experience of running a console(N64, PS2, or likewise) throught their tv/ tuner. Is the quality very good, or even better than on a TV? Also could i use my monitor as a type of HDTV? I have a 21" viewsonic that i use as my TV? Also whats the best TV tuner (TV Wonder, or personal cinema or something else?)

Don't know which is best, but I run my PS2 through my TV card. It looks great. The downside is that because the resolution of a monitor is so much higher than a TV, you'll see more edges and flaws in the graphics ('cause you see more detail)
