I recently bought a 21.5 inch hp monitor. Sweet monitor but it isnt VESA compliant and I plan to mount my monitors in the future. I also decided a want a bigger monitor. Anyway, Im looking at monitors and was wondering if tvs work okay? I have a 32 in hd tv and when I use it as a monitor it is super blurry. I dont know if its just that tv or if all tvs are like that? I found some tvs i would like to use for monitors but dont want to get them if they will be blurry too. Thanks for any help.

Update: just to make the post a little clearer, the monitor and tv I'm looking at are same brand, same size, same resolution, and same price. Different plugs is only real difference and I like the looks of one better.

I am a day trader so the monitor/tv will be used mostly for charts and market data etc. Very rarely gaming. So tvs make text blurrier? Why is that? Considering they are the same size and resolution.
