how do i hook up the cable (coaxial) to it, since it doesnt have the coaxial input? my friend said a modulator? can any of you link me to a good (cheap also) one that would work with the tv?

thanks

If your on digital cable. Just use the svideo.

If regular cable, you need to run through a VCR or something, and then go to a composite (RCA) that plugs into your monitor. At least that's how I've always done it.

1000:1 contrast ratio, HDMI and better reviews (well it HAS reviews, 24 at newegg)

or this

no reviews, no hdmi, 1200:1 contrast ratio, and imo it looks nicer (asthetically)

it's hard to say really. I honestly wouldn't expect much from either.

The olevia will be much better, if you were to get that. It may be a somewhat off brand as well, but is considered to be one of the best off brands. I have a 37" olevia and it rocks.
