But maybe I did not ask the question right , is LCD or LED better to read text ?

I was planning on buying a 32 inch TV with a VGA port to hook up to my computer , price $200-$300 at Walmart, Besr Buy etc ,

my computer does not have a HDMI output

thanks again Soarer

LCD and LED are the same, as far as viewing, because the LCD panel is the same in each. The primary difference is that LED monitors and TV's use less energy than similar LCD ones do.

Also, be careful using a 32" TV as a monitor. The response rate is slower and on a screen that large 720p and even 1080p won't look very sharp up close. You'll really do better with a higher resolution 27" or 30" IPS monitor.
