It's the High Definition widescreen LCD on this link:

The cable I have right now is not long enough. I at least need to get a
longer cable first before I can test out the output.



According to the specs that TV has both VGA and DVI input ports, and
is capable of displaying 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 768 resolution.

It should work just fine as a monitor with either of those display
settings. Note that if you use 1024 x 768 output the display will be
stretched horizontally so that circles will appear as ovals etc.

I recently set up a computer to TV connection in a local Sears store
using a 42 inch LCD TV with similar inputs.

I used a 50 foot high quality male to male VGA cable to connect the TV
to a second video card in the PC on the sales floor and the image
quality is excellent - text is fully readable etc.


Using HD capable TVs is far different than using S-Video inputs on
conventional TV sets.

Good luck
