We bought one last summer and use it periodically with the laptop to see our 
digital pictures in 37" VGA mode.  In our case connect the laptop, flip it to 
VGA out, end of story.

If you wanted to do crazy things like play video games then there would 
probably be a lot more to consider.  One of these days I'm planning to get a 
computer permanently connected to the TV for general use.
