In a skinflint bid to avoid paying the TV license and a skinflint way to play HD xbox I have given all my TV's away. I was planning on buying a vdidgi-z3 box so I could run my xbox thru my old skool pcmonitor but they only seem to make one a year (or the enslaved old woman they force to make them in hongkong has escaped/died)  and I'm getting xbox cold turkey! Can anyone advise me on a good monitor to buy ( bearing in mind I'm poor enough to give my tellies way to save £130) that would work using a vga cable? Also on the TV liecence front according to the small print even if you have a phone that is capable of recieving live tv they can charge you the fee !!!! I'm b*ggerd if the BBC think they can charge me for accsesing the internet and I'm planning on fighting it so if any budding laywers out there have any advice or any rich people want to contribute to a fighting fund (I promise I wont spend it on a tv licencese and a 48" HD tv:w00t )any help would be much appreciated!

I got caught on this issue a few years ago, because i had a dvd player and a 28" telly, but no ariel or broadcast signal coming into the house, the TV Licenceing Board said "I had the potential to download TV shows and movies so therefore i had to pay for a TV Licence" which i did.... so therefore get what you can afford and pay your licence

If You Think You've Got Lag, It Took Jesus 3 Days to Respawn....
