BTW, i've heard someone say they can't get 1366*768 res via DIV..only 1280*768

I'm getting the 1360*768 (yes 1360) Res on VGA on the one i currently have (linked below)

Please edit title,

This deal is on a REFURB for an hd ready (no hd tuner)model



And btw KEEP the Circuit City 227v you got for $479.99 Olevia Specs on the 227V that CC sold last week for $479.99 mainly because at least it has built in hd tuner and was new (this one in the deal from geeks does not and is a refurb)...

Fixed my thread.

I've already bought it and don't feel like trying to cancel. I have ATI HDTV wonder for OTA anyways.

Do you think the picture quality will be any less?

What do you normally get with a "refurb" from them?
