    I just got myself a sweet 32" HDTV from Samsung, I plugged in my mini and TADA! Like my new setup?

    Cool man! how good is the image quality on these new LCD HDTVs? is it comparable to a LCD monitor? I kind of have this idea as well... it is way cheaper than a 32"LCD monitor, and while the resolution is smaller it is more than good enough for games and videos...

    Res would be 1366x768 if I'm guessing correctly. The Samsung 32" panel is pretty sweet.

    Nice rig, although I couldn't handle sitting that close to a 32" behemoth... 24" is about my limit.

    Not sure on the resolution, I finished setting it up and installing my receiver on the tv around 2am and had to get to work at 8am. I'll let you guys know when I get home.!

    They're called userbars... a quick google will locate download sites and apps to custom generate your own.

    P.S. Try to avoid SMS speak... it tends to annoy a lot of people, who'll be less inclined to help you.

    My Macbook will only connect to my 32" Samsung at 1280×720 (720p) max. I am using a VGA cable, but I know that VGA supports up to 1080i, so I would love to know how you are doing it if you have got something higher.
