If i want to use a LCD flat panel TV as a computer monitor, what should I look for?

I live in a small studio apartment, and I would like to use a LCD flat panel TV to watch regular cable tv and also use it as a computer monitor to save space, what features should I look for in the TV ? is it enough if it says - PC imput : Yes - on the fetures list?

Answer:
look for a dvi input input(http://www.cnet.com.au/shared/images/pro...

or a standard monitor input.

also check the outputs on the back of the computer, most likely wont have DVI, but check to make sure.

next thing you need is the appropriate cable of the correct length, easily found at Radio Shack, Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.
It needs a VGA input. Just a side note. Standard Definition TV looks kinda bad on an LCD.
