Some people claim that "cheap" lcd brand could have a burn-in effect, but I myself have never seen that. Only with plasmas. I wouldn't worry too much about that if I were you. I'd encourage you to use your lcd tv however you feel like it, even as a computer monitor.

I've never had burn-in on plasma or an lcd, and I play a lot of video games with HUD.
