In fact the screen resolution accommodates the 16:9 ratio. I"ll have to tell Brandon at work about the screen lock he can do so it stays in 16:9 1080i...LOL :)~ If your watching a TV show in 16:9 1080i the picture is not stretched.

Widescreen movie in widescreen format is fine by me. As the matter of fact, I LOVE that. Didn't go to USC film school to not appreciate movies in their correct format. It's the regular ratio TV that get stretched out to fit the wide screen and everyone looks like they got stepped on that get me. Like I said, I like things in their correct perspective.

It has been said by numerous directors that they would prefer there movies watched in it's true format of wide screen. Your logic is basically like saying "Brandon got one of those fancy new color TV's today, I prefer to watch all my shows in black & white though". The shows you watch in 1080i 16:9 wide screen are not "smushed" in fact there laid out in there proper format. Maybe this website will help see the light. http://www.erwintang.com/widescreen02.html BTW: I'm with Brandon on this one... =) RE: New TV
