I've connected a computer to my 32" HDTV to watch netflix and youtube.
It's fine for that, but as far as doing email or text editing, you
either have to sit too close to see the whole screen or too far to see
text at normal sizes.

I'm not saying it's impossible to imagine a setup where it would work,
but I didn't achieve one in the few hours I spent with it (admittedly
not trying very hard).

Einstein explained his theory to me every day; by the time we arrived,
I was finally convinced that he understood it.
