I'm using a 20 inch BENQ flat screen TV/Monitor with antenna, video, s-video and PC inputs.
The PC, Monitor and an LG surround-sound home theatre audio system are all hooked up together, so I'm listening to a favourite MP3 playlist on Windows Media Player (the Dido "Sand in my Shoes" track is playing at the moment) in surround sound as I type this, lying back in my lounger, with my feet up.
Multi-media - the only way to go.
