Hello , you can use your mouse keyboard and monitor on a laptop or even use the laptop monitor and a LCD in Dual View mod (dual monitors). I sometimes play Age of Empires on my laptop through my 46" LCD big screen.

I think that is what the TV salesman was trying to tell me that my computer LCD monitor would have better resolution. I am soon to buy a new computer and perhaps a second not long after. The second one I was considering a laptop (never owned one), did not think I would care for them. But transport is the reason for me. I need/want the set up though with a monitor and keyboard like I have now. My poor eyes are going downhill.. ;0...been putting off eye surgery on both eyes awhile now, may be inevitable though.
