HDTV is Best Computer Monitor Ever
The economy is not what it used to be. The world that our parents lived in was different from today’s. They grew up in a society where you worked most of your life in a single company and the company would take care of you when you got too old to work. Things don’t work like that anymore.
Instead, if you’re lucky, you will work in several companies during your career. And more likely than not, at some point, you’ll either end up working on your own at home or working for a company… from your home (hopefully not during weekends, but it happens).
Working from home might be more comfortable, but it isn’t easier or takes less time. In fact, if you work on your own, you’ll likely spend even MORE time in front of a monitor than if you work for someone else, since the more you work, the more you earn.
With so much time being spent in front of a monitor, why not get the best one? Buying a HDTV to be used as a monitor isn’t really more expensive than a regular monitor, and the quality of the image is much better. This is even more useful if you work in an area that deals heavily with images, like graphic design or web page building, where you really want details to stand out.
There’s also the matter of your eyesight. As every person knows, seeing a monitor (HD, TV, or regular computer monitor) very close will affect your eyesight on the long run. That’s yet another reason to buy the best one you can afford. You really don’t want to spend 8 hours a day straining your eyes because you can’t make out what the small text on a license agreement says. In addition, even if you “save” money on a cheaper, but of less quality monitor, you’ll end up spending that money on eyeglasses anyway.
Finally, using a HD TV as a computer monitor will enhance almost any experience with your computer. While reading e-mails and writing reports will still be boring, you’ll definitely see a difference when you play video games or watch a DVE on your HDTV. Even videos like the ones you will find in youtube will look much better.
And of course, you can still use your HD TV to watch TV if you want. All it takes is pressing a button to change the signal and that’s it.
