We don’t miss having cable at all. Furthermore, there is a good correlation between TV time and academic success. The less TV the better! But we do appreciate the internet. Thanks for this tip. We’d probably only try setting it up on the weekends.

Kathleen- you can do two things at once- one on the screen, one on the TV, but it’s a bit more challenging.
Yes, you can run long cables; or alternately, given the price of off-lease computers from Dell on ebay, you can just set up a new machine to run it for him for less than $300 all day long.

Thanks! If I can manage to get it hooked up, I can watch Netflix on the tv and free up the computer screen. Can I get a really long cable and wire up the tv in the basement as well for hubby?

This is exactly what I have been looking for, thanks for sharing.
I have a mac though but you still inspired me to dig further.

I want to do this then also use roku.
