Did no one ever make 720p TVs?

As already mentioned several times in this thread, it probably wasn't true 720p. I too had a "720p" TV but no 720p image was ever sharp on it. Not something you'd usually notice with video games or TV/movies but definitely noticeable when you hook a PC up to it. The same was true for every "720p" TV that my closest family owned. 720p just wasn't a common resolution for panels, despite this being the resolution targeted by early HD content.

What's worse, they often did not even have any support for displaying content at the panel's native resolution. So even if you forced the PC to output 1366x768, it would just get cropped, or it still wouldn't be sharp because the TV scaled everything down to 720p before sending it to the panel. Some TVs handled this better than others.

Wow I did not know that thanks for the info
