It will be some time before I can afford a plasma, but have been having a look at some of the models on the market, and notice that many only have a resolution of 852 x 480.
Now forgive me if this is a stupid question, but the UK PAL system has 576 visible horizontal lines. So does that mean that such a plasma display can't display the full PAL resolution?
I think I must be missing something here as I can't believe that people would spend large amounts of money on TV's that have lower resolution than their old sets.
Also I haven't seen any with digital tuners - only analogue. Are there any with digital tuners? (I know you could just use a freeview box.)
