0 Subject: Bandwidth issues????

OK, we have cable TV, cable I-Net and use Vonage for a phone. The new HDTV arrives tomorrow and it is PC capable, meaning we can move the PC next to the TV and plug the PC into it and have a 40" monitor.

IF, we use a splitter for the single inbound cable connection currently going to the conventional TV, will we be setting ourselves up for bandwidth issues if one is on the computer web-surfing and the other is watching cable TV and on the phone? Or would we be best served, by paying Time-Warner to install another cable outlet in the wall?

Nah. With a cable modem you should have no problems at all, at least on your end.

Definitely wont have any issues. Your download speed might go down by about 2%, thats about it. :)

Surfing and using the phone dont use up much bandwidth at all.

I found that connector you were looking for
Cindy, is this the thing you were looking for?
www.liangdianup.com/computeraccessories_1.htm

It's on the list of computer accessories and parts. They have the DVI video thing to convert that jap monitor to work with your other computer. Just about any other kind of wire adaptor, usb connectors, monitor extension wires, ps2 extention wires, and all kinds of female and male swap connectors and things that I think would help your shop. If that above link don't work then goto www.lducompany.com and click on computer accessories. Let me know if that is what you need and give me your email address again.
