It's been a blast! I'm able to not only watch my instant-viewing Netflix movies on my TV (not bad quality even though it's not quite HD) and also if I want to work on my TV for the day, I always can. All you have to do is buy a couple cables (depending on which laptop you have) and voila, you are usually set. Anyone ever done this?
Yep! We have a laptop that gets hooked up to our TV sometimes, for Netflix videos (currently watching the 'Dead Like Me' TV-series), but also because it has a built-in BluRay player. It's great that 1 HDMI cable carries both HDTV and Dolby 5.1 sound.
Our older HDTV (non-Panasonic) only has 1 HDMI input so I had to buy an HDMI switch to switch between the DVR signal and the laptop signal.

Whoo hoo! Glad to see someone else utilizing this cool feature.
