  Old  Tv or monitor?

Hello,

I am looking at buying a second monitor for my computer (so when I play wow or do work on websites I can have aim and the internet in one) and cs4 or games on the other...

I was looking between 2 things a 24" lcd monitor (which is the largest I would need) and a 32" hdtv .. which is a tad more.. the question that I have is I would like to also use that second monitor as my tv (put on angled stand on my wall.

(I have a box so the connection wouldn't a problem, just use hdmi .. but the thing I am afraid of is if I used the monitor would I be able to use a remote to turn the tv on, change the volume etc? or would i have to buy the tv to have the IR receptors in it?

---
also I wanted to know if there was any adapter that I could turn my logitech x530 speakers to use both my pc and my tv (and have a remote setup to em both.. ?


thanks in advance
