Computer LCD for TV with satellite

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I use satellite for my whole house (dish network). Since the satellite receiver is the tuner and has volume built in, would there be any loss using a 15" computer monitor with speakers built in in my kitchen vs. using a 15" tv? Price is about a 2/3 savings. Do I need a receiver with special outputs or do they make adaptors for coax or S-video to the serial input on the computer monitor?
Thanks for the help. You may be saving me about $700.
