Could you use this computer as TV for Cable?

Yes. There are 2 HDMI IN ports on the back of the monitor base. Instructions say "Connect HDMI devices to watch on the Display*. (Blue Ray players, cable/satellite boxes, game consoles, etc). The * Language is this, "The HDMI IN Port is not used for HDMI output. Does not support dual displays. Hope this helps.

Yes, you could connect it using an HDMI cable to your HDMI port to turn your tv into a monitor

Yes. As long as the TV has the correct input jacks. Depending on the size of the TV's screen, the computer may not have the resolution ability to fill up the whole screen.

Depends. This is just a bare bones PC. You have to add a hard drive, memory (RAM), and an operating system. You could also add a TV tuner, in which case you could connect your cable/satellite in order to watch TV through your PC. If you had a tv tuner then yes you can watch all the same channels. Some cable providers also allow you to stream on demand content over the internet. If you do that then you can stream your content through your PC onto your monitor/tv

The cable connection honestly doesnt matter you can connect any type of computer to any type of television. Yes you can connect them but it will not possibly give you the high definition sound quality or resoultion that you need. I purchased it to connect my blu ray to my compuyer but I failed :)) so yes Is your answer you can connect it but dont excpect to habe good quality.

If your cable box has HDMI output,then it should be no problem.......otherwise you can use the component outputs on the cable box.

Yes, this could be setup on a TV only. You only need a computer if you want to use the view your cameras in the Internet feature.

NO! This TV is not internet capable. The USB port is only for viewing image files, such as jpeg's. The HDMI ports are for DVR's ect. Sorry about that. There is no input to use as a computer monitor either. It is a very good TV. Hope this helps.

Yes. You can use it similar to a wireless projector. Once you connect it to your TV, everything you do on your computer/laptop will be shown on the TV

No, you can only hook it up to a laptop. If you have an HDMI port on both your computer and tv and have an HDMI cable, then you can hook your computer to your tv and this to your computer.

You will need a VGA cable connected to the computer, to the VGA connection on your TV. You may have to use a short VGA splitter on back of your computer. You may purchase this on Amazon. That's the way I have mine hooked up.

This thing doesn't need to be hooked up to a computer to operate. You just need a TV or computer monitor. Sorry, but I don't have enough of a Geek background with this to know if it can be hooked up to any computer.

The answer is "No" to both of your questions. This is a monitor, not a television. A television has a built-in tuner so it can take signals (from an antenna or cable) and display it on the screen. A monitor only displays what is fed to it from a source (could be a computer, DVD player, Blu-Ray player, etc.) If your computer can receive a signal from an antenna, then this monitor would be able to display it. But in general, think of a monitor as a dumb device -- it just displays what is fed to it...

Sort of. This screen does not have a built in TV tuner, so you can't change channels with it like you can with a television, however, most cable boxes today have HDMI outputs, and since the monitor has an HDMI input, it can absolutely be used as a TV.

Hi Toni--the answer is "yes". I just connected yesterday, as a matter of fact, and it was a breeze. I went to a website to find out how to connect my computer to a TV and it worked just fine. Here's the website: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtRd_ttmQ70

No the cable for some reason does not have the power to transfer the image of your computer to ur tv.
