Talking About High-Def


If you're looking for a high definition TV but confused as to whether 720p, 1080i or 1080p is supposed to mean anything to you, this article might help you out a bit: It looks at some of the noise surrounding 1080p high-def TVs (the highest of the high definitions), and offers some explanations as to what all the terms and numbers mean, and what might be the best buy for you now, as opposed to later. It's from a video gaming site, so there's a bit of game commentary in there, but it's still usable for people who don't plan to hook up an XBox 360 or a PlayStation 3 to their fancy new machine.
