Want to buy a tv for my son’s room and it says “PC input – can be used as a pc monitor” so what would connect the two?
Thanks

if it says PC input then it is a VGA cable. radio shack will have one
You want to connect that with VGA, the same cable used to hook up you current computer monitor. If you want to go a little highter quality, get a converter that changes that VGA port to a DVI port and use that cable instead. It will be almost as good as HD. With either the VGA or DVI you will need to run a seperate cable for audio. Also (If your Computer is HD ready) you could hook it up directly to the TV (skipping the “PC input” altogether) and run HDMI to both, plus, added bonus, you get audio that way, but its a little more expensive.
I wanna know too!
