My primary requirement was for a large monitor to attach to my PC, with a decent screen resolution of 1920x1080, with the additional features of a TV in the future rather than doubling up on multiple screens in my room. My experience to date with the Samsung as a PC Monitor has been really positive. The display is sharp, clear and it looks great in the room. Its got adequate options for multuple input connections (HDMI, Scart, DVI, Component), and you can link your PC soundcard to the screen which cuts down further on the amount of wires and extra speakers. The sound quality is OK, but if you wanted really crisp and clear sound from music or DVDs, you might prefer to stick with your external speakers. I look forward to trying the TV in the next few weeks when I have had an outside aerial fitted. I tried some internal portable aerials, but the freeview signal is just not good enough where I am, hence the reason for an outside unit. All in all, very pleased with the unit.
