HDTV ready?

[PotGuy]

i am looking to buy this monitor in the near future

but i was surpirised to see that there is something in specification that says HD-15, which i presume is high-definition? I have looked for a bit aroudn the net and this is definately a feature

is this high definition or is it just some other thing completely?

This solitary symbol, after standing steadfast through so many decades, TV as we knew it – Your TV – has now been replaced. Through the evolution of display technology, a new television has emerged; so totally different, a new TV 'paragon' has been created. This 'near-perfect' model comprises a whole-new-complex of icons in place of the One. Yesterday’s TV has yielded today’s: DTV … SDTV … EDTV … HDTV.

Makes no odds to me ... I ain't got a TV ... when I did have one there was nothing to watch anyway.

I still laugh at my brothers house ... he gets very anoyed when I tell him I have aready seen that program ... "How!" he says "you haven't got a TV" ... sorry bruv, I've lived longer.

In fact, HDTV is just ONE of (18) formats that comprise the ATSC Digital TV Standard. But beyond all argument, HDTV offers the ultimate in TV Picture Quality. Yet to avoid any misconceptions, it’s important to note that Digital-HDTV is immeasurably, MORE than merely a “better TV picture.”

Still nothing to watch on it.

lol

it isnt actually a tv, but a computer monitor. Im just really confused as to whether that hd-15 means high definition, because if it does its a bargain, and if it doesn't im still going to get it

I dont think it means its an HDTV, as after all its just a computer monitor Then again, I'm not up to speed on the HD standards so I could be way off course

Its thin edge ultra-slim bezel design enables multiple-display configurations in immaculate digital HDTV clarity for powerful multi-tasking and mixed media data analysis.

Yep, could be another 'marketing' ploy ... still ... nuffin on TV then.

either way im still getting it as its a great monitor - was just curious

 

[muckshifter]

For future proofing you need HDMI on the back of your TV
