My dad's looking for a HDTV big screen for our new house. He's working with a 52" opening (width), 53" and 56" TV's fit. He will probably go with Dish Networks for the service. He's seeing these TV's that say things like "1080i", "480p", "720p", what does this mean? What's the difference? Can anyone recommend a good site to learn about this stuff? Recommendations for a good TV would be helpful too. He's looking at a Panasonic 56" they carry at CostCo ($1,100 cheaper than the same one at Fry's! =P)
I know it's way off topic, but I figured you bimmer drivers gotta know something about this stuff! =)
