Default Using Plasma TV as computer monitor?

Are you certain the set is a plasma and not a 32" Sharp Aquios LCD?? If it
is an lcd monitor there will be no problem using it with the computer once
you get the hookup and resolutions figured out.

It is not recommended to use a Plasma display for a computer monitor. It
is
best to use a proper dedicated monitor for your computer to have the best
results.

Plasma displays are very susceptible to have burn in, and also will not
perform as well as a dedicated computer LCD screen when used on a
computer.

I have a friend who is willing to sell me a 32" Sharp Aquos Plasma HD
TV and I want to know before I buy it; could I use it as a computer
monitor? It has a HDMI connector and my computer has a DVI connector
also. I see cables on Ebay that can connect the two together but would
the picture be blurry or patchy? What about resolution settings? What
would the advantages and disadvantages be? Thanks
