The best you'll get from any television is 525 lines (525 in most of Europe and 425 in N. America). And that depends on the inputs used - component video will give you the most (525 or 425 depending), s-video about 20% below that and composite video about 40% below that.

So basically a TV is not a good choice as as second monitor. To watch a video it's fine, but as a monitor, no.
