I just figured out how to extend my laptop monitor screen onto my television in my room that I never use anymore. Now I can play PCM on 1 screen and write my story/MG reports on the other at the same time!
This is amazing, my life is forever changed. No more constantly flipping back and forth between tabs.
(Will obviously help a lot with my school work as well, but it's way more excited when thinking about the possibilities for PCM.Daily. Like I wish I had this during the MG transfers...)
Yeah. But my TV screen is just a little bit bigger than my laptop screen so it's not that much of difference. Guess I have to invest in a bigger TV now.

Yeah same for me. The TVin my room is about the same size as my monitor. but imagine if you had a big screen!

How did you do this? My TV has Wifi and all of that jazz so maybe I dont need to hook up a cable, since the cable I do have is literally a few inches too short from my TV and where I sit with my computer.
I've also played on a HD TV before. Problem is I have a laptop now.
Could it be possible to connect my laptop via HDMI and play it on TV again?
Any expert in that area?

I also have played PCM by hooking up my laptop to HDMI TV, and it isn't a huge difference other than the screen being about 4 times as big

I play on a HDTV connected to the computer via HDMI cable. It's great.
The bigger the TV/monitor, the more powerful the graphics card you need.
The problem is that most laptops don't have enough graphics horsepower to run large displays.

I bet you would notice the difference having two crossfire 2GB graphic cards i have.
For all the HDTV setups: you can send WiFi to a tv. Check out Intel Wi-Di adapters. Secondly, my 42" TV is my main monitor, and truth be told, I tried it on my HD projector (~154in of screen) and found it to be shit, so stay 47" and under.

I might have to look into this, since Alt+Tab kills PCM every time for me.
