depending on the inputs that it had you may be able to hook it up do a seperate dvd player for movies, that is if your dvd player has the correct outputs, like dvi or vga. however this would be pointless as you could just watch the movie on your apple. but atleast from watching on a seperate dvd player you could hook up surround sound through a reciever or something if you have the set up. otherwise running surround sound through your computer would require a compatible sound card, which i don't know if you have. other than that, uses for a monitor... spit wad target, dark mirror.

Movies, games, video editing, that big of a screen will give you more space to work in more apps - increase productivity. With a computer the quality will be determined more by the video card than the monitor.

Wait until your eyes are old and you can not read the screen on your laptop without your glasses.
