still rocking a 50" pioneer plasma at home, and you have to use vga on that to get all the 1366x768 glory

the hdmi inputs has extreme overscan with no way of turning it off

probably not at all worth it at this point but you could probably correct for that in the gpu driver if you hook a computer up to it

i've done that to test it out, but the effective resolution gets down to like 1100x680 or something absurd like that

you can only compensate for the overscan, not magically get it to run actual 720p

and even if you could, 768 still is better than 720, and on plasma you dont really notice any vga artifacts

(ok maybe if you set a solid color wallpaper (e.g. green) on your desktop and then have a black window open, then you get some shadow artifacting going)
