Anybody out there have their computer wired to an LCD tv, and if so did you use VGA or S-video hook-up?

Alexson apparently didn't read what this thread is all about. Now he/she can sit and stare at truckblog all they want to - and that's all they can do.

Nice to meet you as well.

I'll just go ahead and say goodbye now. Tom should be along shortly to zap your ass back where you came from.

I've got an HDMI cable running to my TV, but it only enables when I have video on the main screen.

I'm running HDMI from my mbpro to my tv at 1920 by 1080. Text is easy to read but I did have to calibrate the tv a bit to make it happen.

I use VGA also, I have mine set up with a video splitter on my 37" inch tv for watching downloaded movies

I use VGA, or more preferably HDMI or DVI.

An Svideo connection is only going to support about 480-500 lines, which will look like ass in most cases.

SVGA/DVI/HDMI can all support higher resolutions. Just make sure you match the output resolution to one of the native resolutions of the LCD/Plasma. Otherwise, the picture will be very soft.

I have an Apple Mac Mini or AppleTV (Running both OS X apps and Boxee) on all of our plasma screens. It's handy for watching Netflix streams, pulling up the security cameras, pulling up the home automation interfaces or other very basic stuff. But even at 1080p, I don't think the image is useable for text-based stuff like web browsing.
