You might wanna consider 32" (or bigger) HDTV instead. They are cheaper and still just as good. Ive used one for two years now.

One of the drawbacks keeping paper wargamers from coming over to join computer wargamers is the common complaint that computer wargaems do not let you see the entire map.  This new generation of monitors/TVs solves that.

Unless you want to play WITP, where you just get the same small map with bigger hexes on your screen. [:(]

Can't see the whole map?That's what ''ZOOM'' is for.The only way you can see the entire map of a board game is if you stand away.So....

People who do professional video editing use a similar setup.
 
Call of Duty 4 is a bonus.

Let's see what happens when WiF comes out. That one will be a real test of all the big monitors or HD tv's. especially if it comes with all the expansion maps.

No kidding. Sitting in front of that for two hours would be like riding back and forth through the airport luggage screening machine about 200 times. Can you say EMF? I suppose you could wrap yourself in tinfoil and just cut out two eye slits. [:)]

Yes. You hook it up like regular (DVI/VGA/etc) and it works just like regular (starts up when you boot).
