    Default TV screens double up as browsers



    In recent years, television viewers have been regularly lured away from the small screen to their home computer monitors.

    But video sites such as YouTube could be best enjoyed from a comfortable sofa rather than hunched over a computer.

    The option to kick back and let the net come to the TV screen has been made possible by a range of devices from handheld games consoles using wi-fi to mobile phones.

    Now a couple of TV manufacturers have built web functionality into some of their new TV sets - with an ethernet cable or wi-fi dongle replacing the more conventional aerial.

    I also want something like this, there's a s-video socket in my tv set, which method is best for connecting my pc to the TV set.
    I have heard of some wires, but is this safe to use these wires, will it harm my pc or the tv set?

    These VGA to PAL converters are quite expensive, some internet sites are quoting them around Rs. 2000-3000. I expected a little less than this, probably below Rs. 1000.

    That's quite expensive to get the tv screen experience. Do these really cost that much?

    I saw the cost here:
