A bit of entertainment can enliven long computer sessions, especially when the computer is grinding away at downloading or some other task. So quite a few computer monitors now include TV tuners that can switch between a full-screen TV picture and a small picture-in-picture (PiP) window at one corner of the screen.The Samsung SyncMaster 940MW takes the idea a bit further, with a PiP window that can be set to occupy as much of the screen as you like and a built-in FM tuner for times when the whole screen is needed for the computer. The 19-inch screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio for wide-screen movies.
