I made the switch from Analog to HDTV just over a year ago and purchased a Toshiba 32HLC56 LCD 32 inch Monitor without the a HD tuner built in. My main reason for purchasing this type of HDTV is I wanted to use it as a monitor with my PC as well as viewing programs with it. I am able to connect a PC to the monitor and Dvd player that has a built in tv turner. I also have a HDTV tuner with my PC so I am able to get the Digital Programs over the air, and with cable I am able to get Digital programing to view in high definition.
