I can run my ps3 1080p over the HDMI input, but when I hook up the PC over HDCMI it only goes to 1366 x 768. computer resolution and HD resolutions are different somehow, I've never quite understood why a 1080p tv won't do 1920 x 1080. Maybe someone else has done that and can tell me how, I'd love to put my 32" HDTV on my desk, I just can't take the lower resolution. -----Original Message----- From: David Lum [mailto:david....@nwea.org] Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2008 1:06 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: LCD monitor vs LCD HDTV?
I could be wrong, but a 1080p HDTV is basically like a 1920x1080 monitor or a 720p is 1280x720 that you can't change the resolution on. I infer It from this: http://www.cnet.com/hdtv-resolution/ True A-V geeks will likely chime in here. The "p" vs "i" discussions remind me of the early SVGA days where some monitors were interlaced and other non-interlaced (non-interlaced being the better choice), nowadays we hear "progressive" instead of non-interlaced.

I was looking to replace my aging 14" tube monitor with an LCD monitor. However, it seems like, for the price of a 22" LCD flatpanel monitor, I can get a 22" LCD HDTV which includes a tv tuner. So.... is there any reason to buy a LCD flatpanel monitor? The prices are about the same for a LCD monitor vs LCD HDTV. Thoughts? Feel free to msg off-list if this is considered OT.
