anyone have experience with this? I thought I might get one in the future instead of a TV card just so I can get past windows and not worry about it crashing while im watching my favorite show.... TV cards cost almost the same so why not?

Are you talking about just getting an MP monitor which has the coaxial connector on the monitor...or something else?

Do you mean a TV tuner box? A peripheral which is independant from PC instead of a TV tuner card (AGP interface)which will be affected whenever your PC get problem. This is a good idea. I have seem a promotion from BenQ FP791 + Tuner box.

I'm trying to choose between the Sceptre X7SV-Naga+ and Samsung SyncMaster 1701MP monitors since I need a LCD monitor with built in TV tuner but my main purpose will be for playing games. I think the Sceptre has a faster response time but the Samsung has better image quality. Which one would be a better overall choice? Also do they have connections for component/monster video cables (for playing PS2 in high definition mode)?
