    I have an hdtv and i wanted use my cf 30 on it. It has hdmi and dvd, so i was going to get a vga to dvi connector. I was wondering if anybody has done this, and how the resolution was? My tv is 1920 x 1080

    I have connected my CF-30 to my monitor running 1920 X 1080 at 85hz and it looks fine to me. This is a 24" CRT however so depending on your tv size the pixel size and pitch will be different (the bigger the tv the bigger the pixels). As long as you're not gaming it works fine. I have streamed Netflix and played youtube vids no problem even some 1080P avis with no stutter. This is an Intel integrated GPU and dual core by the way. YMMV depending on your processor vid card/integrated graphics.

    All I can say is try it and see what happens. I have discovered there is no consistancy in what they will do, at least with my 2 30's. Let us know!
