Hi everyone,

Like the title says - I was wondering the pro’s and con’s of using my Sony Bravia LCD TV as a PC monitor for gaming. I have heard that burn-in can happen with plasma TV’s, however my TV says that it’s an LCD - can this still happen?

I’m going to be using an s-video cable to do this - does anyone know if this will damage my TV? It’s a flat screen and surely if it has LCD written on it can’t be a plasma?

Thanks to anyone who can help!
