    Nice setup bro. Looks sweet for sure. This is my setup! All I do is hook up the M1330 via HDMI, use the wireless keyboard and mouse on my couch. That's when I'm not playin the Xbob 360 or PS3.

    sweeeeeeeeet i would love to have a tv like that just for tv!!

    chair is super comfortable, made for trucking so its damn good, weighs in @ 90lbs tho...
    You can adjust chair tilt, lean back/forth, lower lumbar support as well. and arm rests are awesome too can adjust height


    how do you activate HDMI, FNC F8?

    Thank's man. I love the TV. It's actually purchased from dell too. I got it during the days of dell deal this summer. Westinghouse W4207 1080i HD LCD for $699.

    Yeah that chair for yours looks comfy. I think my roommate has a similar one.

    To use the HDMI for video and audio on your tv you just need to enable it from the display settings. Then also enable the sound.

    so click start --> control panel --> click appearance and personalization --> click adjust screen resolution --> then the display properties window should appear --> click advanced --> click the tab for your video card --> in the display devices section, select the appropriate option for using either a single display or multiple displays, ensuring that the display settings are correct for your selection.

    For the sound click start --> control panel --> sound --> under sound, click the playback tab --> if the HDMI device is not the default device, select it, click the set default button, click ok.

    I hope that helps.
