Oi! Enough. If you two want to slug it out then please do it off this thread.

alkt; welwitchia, zaakath and a few others using the Dell. The thread is here.

One thing to keep in mind though, with the Dell LCD you'll be seating a lot closer compared to the TV, so perspective-wise the Dell is bigger.

MK84,

Have you tried 1080i on component with the xbox 360 with the plasma tv?
Where did you get the VGA adapter for xbox 360?
What is the lifespan of the plaxio plasma tv (ie 60000 hours)
Can convert the SCART to composite using adapter and/or component? (using adapter)

Yo MK, any noticable lag/ghosting issues when playing those 60 fps GAMES or in action scenes in movies?

Oh and since you're using the VGA cable, the screen will be upscaling your image to 720p right? Plasmas are not native 720p... Any loss in quality there?

What do you mean by upscaling to 720P?

So far no lag or ghosting issues with games. Only got some screen tearing during Oblivion intro screen. VSync problem maybe?

Haven't really tried with 1080i.
Got the VGA cable from Djinn.
Lifespan, can't remember this one, have to check the manual again.
Convert SCART to composite? You mean the other way around issit? Convert composite/component/xbox to SCART? You need to buy the cables.

Ok sweet, the tearing should be Vsync, happens to quite a number of games.

I didn't notice any tearing on my 42" Panny plasma. 1080i is very nice, no slow down or whatever. If you're not running 720p or 1080i with x360, you're lossing out a lot of the detail.

mk,

One question if you don't mind. what is the maximum viewable resolution you get when you plug your plasma to your laptop? at 1366x768, do you need to squint your eyes to read this post?

thanx in advance.

So, at 1025x768, is it viewable?

Some plasmas I see do not double up well as a PC display. Either they are blurry and not viewable, or the fonts are just badly skewed.

Viewable, but kinda squashed lah. Unless you set it to 4:3.

Probably would be better on 16:9 if you can set custom resolution.
