Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions 720p vs. 1080p

I think Sirquack and others are discussing a different question :

"Assuming that I have already decided to go with a reasonably priced projector capable of displaying off-the-air HD content (720p or 1080i) at native resolution, which of those two resolutions is going to work best for me ?

I think there probably is agreement here that for DVD only going with a 480p projector is going to be at or close to the performance limit (I say close becuse it seems believable that a really good scaler plus a higher resolution display could look better (less pixellated) than a 480-line native projector).
