Ask HDBeat: How can I tell the difference between 1080i and 1080p

Jul 24th 2006 10:18PM on Engadget HD

I know many people that can't tell the difference between 480p (standard progressive scan DVD) and 720p. I think the truth is that if you can't tell the difference, you wouldn't want one anyway. I for one, want a 1080p LCD or DLP so I can display 1920 x 1200 from my computer, as well as have th best possible HD resolution. I realize the only supposed source at the moment is Blue-Ray, which I don't intend on being a guinea pig for. But within a year or so, according to trend, this whole argument will be moot because there will be a new improved capability that far exceeds 1080p. I for one am happy to be at the early downslope of the new product curve, after all the current noise abates and the next big thing is on the horizon.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
