I happened to notice an advert in a UK newspaper
today.
'The PC is not supplied with a monitor. However
the necessary
cables/connections to use your TV as a display are included'
So it appears that using a TV as a computer display is
alive and well in
the UK. Mind you, IMHO trying to view Windows (and I am sure that's the
OS that came with this machine) on the average TV screen would make it
even more unpleasant than usual.
Well... are you shure they did say 'TV', and
not Multimediadisplayterminalsetwhatever ?
And of course modern TV-sets are not just TV-sets :)
Gruss

(Serious: If conected wia RGB/SCART, a mid to high
class TV can be as good as any cheap CRT - especialy
when using only 800x600 alike resolutions - or even
a possible, better adapted resolution)

I don't know if I would wnt to connect a 'Tiny' PC to my TV even if it was
free. I have had experience of their biuld quality, the worst case was when upgrading one
of their machines for someone and after fitting the extra HDD I switched it on and the
magic smoke escped because the spare 'idiot proof' power plug from the PSU was mis
wired putting +12V where the drive expected +5.
