21.5" is big enough for me. Not really much room on my desk.

I have my laptop connected to it along with my PS3.

Hey, I'm having some thecnical issues with my copy of Need for Speed Hot pursuit, the game works fine, but the problem is with another game, named Kane and Lynch, when I try to run kane and Lynch, NFS hot pursuit starts instead of it, for no reason. Please, if anyone know any sort of solution, reply my comment.

Hmm... thats curious... what OS are you using? Win 7? My recommendation would be to uninstall both (Though you might want to keep your save file for both, should be in the "document and setting" for your account, just copy them to somewhere else like the desktop or something) and then install them back one by one and check em (I recommend installing K&L first and then check if it works ok before installing NFS) otherwise, you might want to check your registry.

Well, this is one thing that I can't help with. I'm totally blind when it comes to TVs since I rarely watch them. Well... the only thing I can recommend are the brands, Panasonic is not something I would recommend though, yes they used to be great but from what I heard, they are not as good as they used to be. I would recommend LG or Samsung if you're looking for a good price deal or Sony if you can afford it.

From what I read on some of the forums, LG is crap lol.

I heard Panasonics make good Plasmas but are OK with LCDs.

I would've normally gone with another brand (Samsung), but the price was too good to pass up. And I looked at the reviews and it got favorable reviews. So hopefully it's good

You can use a DMZ or port forwarding on your router.

I recommend using the DMZ, much easier.

If you need any help or don't get how to do it you can always hit me up on here/XBL if nobody else here replies, I'd probably be able to walk you step by step real quick.
