[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 411400, member: 24160"] It does not have a DVI input, it does however, have a VGA input. Since this MBP is my first venture into the Mac world, I have no experience with the PowerBook. I have done some experimenting with my MBP connecting it to 26", 32", 50" and 55" HDTV's, all of them 720p. Haven't upgraded to a 1080 set yet. Have tried VGA and HDMI inputs on most of them and [B]edit[/B]: did not find a whole lot of difference between the two. For watching DVDs it's pretty good. For me, it is not fine for browsing or any type of text. The primary monitor for my XP box is a 26" HDTV at 720p. I will just say that it far surpasses the clarity I am able to obtain with my Mac.
