multiple display inputs

[ctb_24]

I would like to be able to use my plasma/LCD as both the display for my home theater system (DVD/sat.) as well as the monitor for my personal computer. What device/product would I use to be able to easily switch between these two display inputs?

thanks

Some displays are already set up for this purpose. Do you already have the display, if so what is the make and model, or are you looking to purchase one.

From the way you worded your question "plasma/LCD" I assume you don't have one yet. Many plasmas and LCD's have 15pin RGB inputs that you can just plug in your monitor's cable and use as a PC monitor. I am personally typing this to you on a 55" plasma connected this way. I use component inputs for my cable and DVD. I also have 2 HDMI inputs that I haven't used yet. If you're interested, my set is a Hitachi 55HDT51. I love it.

Good luck,
Mark
