I was interested in buying the 5672 and read on buy.com http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=202166285&SearchEngine=DealTime&SearchTerm=202166285&Type=PE&Category=Comp&Gad=0&dcaid=15891 that is has video in. Is this correct? I read in the user manual off the ACER website that some models have video in. I have looked at the 5672 on a few other sites and see nothing about video in.

Also I have looked at sites like www.cyberpower.com and www.ibuypower.com and it looks like you can configure a hell of a computer for a good price. Are these sites credible, or should I stick to a brand such as ACER?

Thanks in advance for any help.

mine doesn't. It does have svhs-out, vga-out and DVI-out, but doesn't have any video-inputs.
I have the european model, with 1gb ram T2300 1.66GHz 667 MHz FSB.

I have read that you need a special cable that converts the s-vhs out to s-vhs in
I suppose the board could be configured to make the signal go either way

here's a quick update, my 5672 has the s-vhs on the right hand side, the port has 3 more pins than standard s-vhs out cables, so I would reckon they are for video in.
so a cable thats scart output to s-vhs input is needed, I shall be shopping for one soon.
