[Mr ChriZ]

I'm looking to buy a 32" Television.  The ones I'm looking at seem to come with HDMI sockets.  I currently have an ATI card Radeon 1350 with DVI output.
Can I just buy some form of splitter so that I can keep my screen on one, and the TV on the other, and then convert it to HDMI?
Or am I better off replacing with a new graphics card with both HDMI and DVI built in.  If so could someone suggest something fairly cheap which is at least as powerful as the above Radeon?

Cheers

Radeon HD 4550's can be had for about $40.

Thanks for the suggestion DP, I think I'm going to try one of these.

Unfortunately the 4550's are around £40 over here, and that seems a lot of money if my current graphics card might do the job!

My theory is it should work.  I'll keep people updated!
