Another one guys.
This issue has been brought up before, but I can't recall reading a definitive answer.
Why do all new 32" LCD screens have the native resolution of 1366x768, when 720P is 1280x720??! I realise you'll get a slightly higher res picture when connecting to a PC, but surely these screens are aimed more at the 720P standard sources?
The 1366x768 screens are already struggling with SD broadcasts of present due to scaling issues, but then, wouldn't there will be scaling issues when HD broadcasts become a common thing too?
Wouldn't a 1280x720 screen fair better for this purpose?
Another point is; why 1366x768? It's not a resolution used in computing (to my knowledge) and it certainly doesn't conform to the HD standard resolutions..
Makes me wander.. should I really spend cash on a screen that will never (in the foreseeable future) be used at native res when used as a TV?
