Is this a Monitor suitable for use with a desktop PC?

Yes, it is. However, the resolution isn't very high. This "monitor" is nothing more than a 32" TV. If you want crispy high def, invest more money in a true monitor.

Yes. I have a multi-monitor system. The large ViewSonic is on the corner of my desk and is being used to answer your question. It has been a great investment.

Suitable yes. Big and bright. If 1920x1080 is enough, other 32"s can fit more. UPDATE: With brightness low the text was very fuzzy, the background of letters was bright. I changed Sharpness from 50 to 20 and it's great! ORIGINAL: I set the brightness level to zero which makes most text look funky bad, but otherwise it is too bright for my eyes/room. Might be better if my computer display could adjust brightness.

Yes, you could use this monitor as your primary computer monitor.........you would need to get a DVI to HDMI conversion switch.....plug the computer into the DVI side and the monitor to the HDMI side. I have read posts on other web sites where people have already hooked this monitor up to their computer and they love it.

The display on the desktop needs a connection for the "monitor" which I don't believe it does.. so no...

This monitor will connect to a tower with a VGA connector only. Hope this helps!

Yes you can. I use it with my desktop because the monitor I have did not have speakers. You have to use an available USB port and make sure that USB sound device drivers are installed. This speaker can be loud. It was well worth it.

First remember this is NOT a touch screen type monitor where you can run the operating system by touching the screen. I will work great as a conventional monitor with a mouse/pointer system. It is also great to use as a TV monitor with the HDMI connections.

Yes, I believe it is but I do not use it that way. All in all I have been extremely satisfied with this monitor.

Yes for both questions. Size of monitor and quality of depiction and sound is perfect for home use. It takes up little space so you can easily move it in another room. I'm using it for my home office and can recommend it for any office'size.

Absolutely yes. Be sure to check compatibility of your monitor to your pc.. DP 1.2.

It is just a monitor so it doesn't matter. Monitor is capable of working with any system. I use this monitor for a larger screen for my laptop and to serve as duel screen.

The monitor supports DVI and VGA inputs so if your laptop can output to either of those then you should be good to go. I have a VGA cable going from my Dell Latitude to the monitor without any problems.

It's a computer monitor only. It's touchscreen great to use with a Windows 7 or 8 system

Yes it would be. You can use either a displayport to mini displayport cable, or since it is only 1080p, you can use an adapter.

as long as you have the right software and monitor to correctly display it, yes

Yes you can use it for a monitor. It has a HD PC port on the rear to be hooked up to your CPU

If you use a cable box provided by your service provider that is compatible with HDMI, DVI or VGA connectors, yes. However this monitor doesn't have speakers. It's designed primarily for PC gaming with the idea or high grade headphones or speaker system to be connected to the PC or gaming system. Same answer for blu ray.
