Put a USB TV-adapter in your laptop or PC, such as the WinTV-HVR-950

Don't think you can convert your monitor itself, unless it has a built-in TV-receiver, (or room for it, if the yoke was not installed on that particular model)

I haven't tried it so I can't say if it works or not. I thought it was a pretty good idea when I came across it.

creed_mty - are you hooking up your MW22U to a T60? I just got mine today (the monitor), and I cannot get the monitor to switch to 1680x1050. When I set the display size to 1680x1050 in the OS (XP), the monitor goes to 1440x900, according to the monitor's menu. Did you ever have this issue? I believe that 1680x1050 is the native resolution of the monitor - am I wrong? It's weird, since 1440x900 isn't even listed as a preset mode in the manual.

Thanks in advance...
