What resolution is it by the way? If it goes up to 1080p (1920x1080) then I might buy one to replace my PC monitor (Well, if I can find one cheap here in the UK), since I use this to play my PS3 too, it's a 24" so it'd be the same size. I used to use the 42" HDTV above my head for PS3 gaming, but now I can play PS3 games and watch tele at the same time, besides I've got an HDMI switch box so I can flick it back and forth between them whenever I like, win/win really, lol.


You might want to look into how well it works for a PC display. I have a TV as my PC monitor and there are some cons to go with the pros.

Pros: I can hook up anything, NES, Dreamcast, PC, etc.

Con: It doesn't wake from sleep mode when I move my mouse like a normal monitor. It's a little anoying that I always have to turn it on and wait a few seconds for it to come alive.

My TV is an RCA so it's possible that other TVs have better PC modes and act like computer monitors.

Since the Playstation Display doesn't have a DVI or VGA plug I'd be worried that it isn't even designed to work with a PC as well as my TV with which does have DVI and VGA in addition to all the rest. The PS Display only has two HDMI and one Component. Now you can easily adapt DVI to HDMI, but not VGA to HDMI. If you have DVI on your PC then it should work fine, but like I said it may not act like a PC monitor. Try to find someone who has it so you can ask specific questions like, "Does it wake up from sleep mode when the PC wakes up from moving a mouse"?

Just a FYI.
