Hey! This has been bothering me for awhile now and I can finally post this question: I have the 2009 15 inch macbook pro connected to a sharp 23 inch hdtv. It is connected VIA min-display-port to HDMI cable. I have it set to dual screens, but when ever I move lets say the browser over to the hdtv, the browser gets cut off and i have to manual resize. My question is, if there is anyway to make it so the hdtv can fit the full screen without being cut-off??

BTW: The hdtv is set to 720p resolution and macbook pro is 1440X900
