Im shopping for an LCD TV and recently have narrowed to a 23" unit. I see a Samsung 23" at BestBuy that has a 1366x768 reso. and one at Costco that has a 1280x720, whats the difference ? Or what is standard?

You have identified the problem. NO television station is broadcasting a 1366X768 signal. They are broadcasting 1280X720. The signal must be upconverted to be displayed on a 1366X768 television. Why the majority of HD Chip manufactures developed the 768 chip I do not know, but that is their standard chip. Several manufactures did produce a 720 chip and as you are looking at a small screen, I would go with the one that does not have to alter the signal to fill the screen. When you upconvert a signal, you are making something out of nothing, thus creating distortion. I would go with the Costco unit.

The numbers are the number of pixels. The more pixels per square inch the better the resolution - picture quality. It should make little difference on such a small screen...........
