Resolution - truth and fiction
Ethical Loner 21st Jul 2009
If anybody has read recent reports on the advertising claims of certain TV makers it should be apparent that monitor makers do the same sort of fudging on their claims of resolution, contrast ratios, etc.

That's the world of marketing today. Tell them anything knowing the vast majority of consumers are not equipped to even understand what they are being told much less investigate claims of manufacturers.

What really matters to most consumers is that they have some fantastic piece of techno lingo to tell their friends and acquaintenances about to they can feel as if they ARE the Jonses for a little while.

It's all hooey. You want to know the truth about a product - do your homework, check with those who do the checking for a living and forget every piece of ad hype that comes your way.

Can you get into the device to troubleshoot? Would hate to have another piece of equipment that everytime there is a problem you have to send it off.

1080p?
joe.krisanda@... 17th Jul 2009
"The D1005 all-in-one touts several solid features, including dual-core processing and true 1080p resolution. "

True 1080p but has WXGA resolution? Am I missing something here?

1920x1080...
bjbrock 17th Jul 2009
is 16:9 which is considered WXGA. So as long as the monitor will produce 1920 horizontally, everything is according to Hoyle.

WXGA is not 1080OP
andrewjg 18th Jul 2009
WXGA is not 1080P. Remember VGA screens were/are
640x480. XGA was 1024x768. Then when things went
wide screen WXGA came to refer to a few different
resolutions depending on the aspect ratio i.e.
16:10 and 16:9. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_XGA for info.
