Hi I am looking for a box that will allow me to watch tv and play my console through my computer monitor. Viewsonic have one that looks really good but they don't sell it in europe! Are there any others around? I would buy a pci tv tuner but the frame rate is only about 30 usually and the resolution isn't as good as the viewsonic ones


Regards,
Ross

Do you already have a monitor? I saw that Dell has a nice LCD with built-in tuner. Unfortunately it's only a 17 inch..

yeah I already have a monitor. I was looking at that dell one, it looks good. Viewsonic decided to cancel that converter box and sell lcds with them built in. I might try and find a 19" widescreen monitor with a tv tuner built in and hopefully a scart input.
