LCD TV UK
As recently as just a few years ago consumers needed a different
monitor or screen for watching movies, for playing video games,
or for watching television and for computing. That's no longer
the case. An LCD TV in the UK with a TV tuner allows you to
enjoy virtually all your entertainment and audio-visual devices
from one location, saving you space and money. If you live in
university housing or a small flat, or if you just want to save
space, an LCD TV in the UK with a built-in TV tuner is a simple
way to accomplish all those goals. Here's an example of how
versatile a UK LCD TV with a TV tuner can be: you combine video
from a PS2, an Xbox 360, cable TV, a DVD player, and the PC -
all into one LCD monitor. You can watch TV with
picture-in-picture mode while you work on your computer, then
with a touch of a button switch over to playing an Xbox or PS2
game. Finished with the game? Toggle back to the TV feed or to
your computer. Here's an important consideration: many standard
LCD monitors will accept television feeds through appropriate
cabling, but you'll need a cable box or cable converter to
decode digital-TV signals. A UK LCD TV with a TV tuner overcomes
that hurdle. Space limitations (for instance, determining where
you have room to put the cable box) is a good reason to have the
tuner built into the television. Also, if the tuner is built
into the monitor, you'll only need one remote control. Keep in
mind that an LCD TV UK with a TV tuner built in will cost
approximately 20 percent more than a monitor without a TV tuner.
