Interesting thought. Most tvs have a vesa mount, so you can put it on a monitor stand. Are there some major drawbacks I might overlook?

I just sent back to the store a 42" Samsung LCD TV for two reasons:

1) It didn’t go into sleep and I always had to fiddle with the remote to bring back the desktop image after a wake up (select source, etc).

2) The color (LED lighting?) wasn’t uniform near the frame even if it was a higher end model.

But the 120 Hz frame rate was interesting and the text extremely sharp. I kept it around 1 meter from my eyes and I liked the extra space. I connected it to an older MacBook Pro through an eGPU.

I've used a 43-inch 4k monitor for 4 years. First a Samsung and now a TCL. I love it. Some people worry about frame latency for high performance gaming, but that's not me. It handles my level of PC gaming just fine, in addition to being my programming workhorse.

You have to watch out for burn in with some TV technologies like OLED.

True, there is a reason why there are close to none PC monitors with OLED screens.
