HDTV (LCD monitor really) Im getting this december

Price is $1,499 right now but should drop some. Ill also be getting the wall mount kit so I can mount it on my bedroom wall and hook the PS3 up to it.

Cant really complain, maybe 2 HDMI imputs would have been nice but meh. 1920x1080p res, 3D comb I mean whats bad???

I really would like to have a DLP, but their expensive and $1,500 is about the most I can spend on a tv lol.

Yea, Westinghouse isnt a name I hear all that often in TV's. But its a 1080p with HDMI and DVI HDCP ports, I can watch HDTV, play PS3 and play my CAL CSS matches this winter on that beast.

Is there anyway to set a hotkey to switch between single and dual monitors? I have my 17" LCD and my 15" CRT going when I do audio stuff, but I'm too lazy to click a few times to switch it back.

it gets complicated. lol but i dont really know because the only dual monitor setup i actually used was with my duron 850MHz laptop, which i at most played SC on, and i know the cursor will go off the edge to the second monitor and thats just annoying. newer games shouldnt do that though
