** This is a good suggestion, just keep in mind that the image quality on
the TV screen is very poor compared to the computer monitor image and due
to signal conversions, the whole computer image MAY not fit on the TV
screen. This method works OK for graphics or very large type faces > 20pts,
but does not work well for 10/12 pt type or finely detailed images. **
