How do I get cable from a coaxial output onto my HDTV monitor?

Search Gaming or Gadget Information (i.e “Xbox 360″)

I just recently moved into a new apartment and I found out from my neighbor that our cable was already turned on without a subscription service. She plugs her coaxial line straight into her TV and gets about 100 channels. I have an older Akai HDTV Monitor. . . How do I get cable from the coaxial output into my monitor without subscribing via the cable company? I already tried using an ATSC Tuner which worked nicely except I only got local channels. Any help would be greatly appreciated. . .

How to play xbox 360 on my laptop monitor?

Is there a way to connect an xbox 360 to a laptop and play from there as if it were a TV? I have a laptop and an xbox both with HDMI output. Doesn’t necessarily have to be with HDMI, as long as I get to use my laptop monitor to play 360 games.

Is it possible to use a HDTV as a primary monitor for a computer?

I understand the concept of HDMI cables, and how to connect a tv to a desktop system. However, I’m wondering if it is possible to set it up so that the HDTV is the one and only option for the desktops monitor. If so, can anyone provide with me some details on how I would do this? Do I just connect the HDMI cables between the desktop and the TV? So when I turn the desktop on, does it automatically show up on the TV?
