Hi,
I have been thinking about building a HTPC... And I am now considering building HTPC to include gaming in my living room.
Currently I game on my desktop and my 30" Monitor is about 2 ft away when sitting on my desk.
In my living room, my 60" Plasma is about 10 ft away from sofa.
Obviously the sound that would come out from my HT in my living room is superior to my 2 small speakers I have on my desktop... but question is the difference between a monitor and a TV.
I understand the difference in resolution between a TV and a monitor... but wanted to check if it's a good idea to use a TV sitting about 10 ft away vs using a monitor 2 ft away.
