    360 Component swap for VGA cable (Offical M$ only)

    yes if you select 1080 on component it will display fine tho as the tosh will accept 1080i inputs then rescale them to 1366x766 or something but via vga it does progressive only so your stuck with 768 max mine is 1080p tho

    no you loose detail the smaller the screen you go as you just cant physically see it hence 1080p is a waste under 40" really
