Is there a significant difference between 720p, 720i, 1080i, 1080p?

Hi,
I'm in the market for a new TV, and as I'm sure you're all aware, there are quite a few options. The subject of this message pretty much says it all. I've heard that the human eye can't percieve the difference between the listed types. Is thatt true or is that just what people that are cheap say? Thanks for any help.
Best Regards,
Tom

It depends on the viewing distance and TV size.  What size TV and what will your viewing distance be?
That said, the price premium for 1080p is so little nowadays that unless you're getting TV around the 32" or smaller range, I would make sure to go for 1080p.

  • Is there a significant difference between the 2.5 GHz i5 and 2.9 GHz i7 processor?

    I'm going to be using my computer for grad school, so I'll be using multiple internet windows plus the Apple versions of Microsoft office all at once.  I'll also be using the computer to watch Netflix.  No gaming or movie-making or anything like that.  So, what kind of difference would the upgraded processor make for me?  I feel like upgrading it would be a waste for me because I'm using pretty basic stuff, but I could be wrong.

  • Considering buying refurbished.  Is there a big difference between a refurb with an original date this year vs. one from over a year ago??

    Considering buying refurbished.  Is there a big difference between a refurb with an original date this year vs. one from over a year ago??

    MacBook Air, 13", Mid 2013:
    On June 10, 2013, Apple released an updated MacBook Air in the same form factor as the 2012 model during the company's Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC). The 11-inch and 13-inch models have a minimum standard 4GB RAM, with a maximum configuration of 8GB. Both models are powered by the Haswell ULT 1.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processors with Turbo Boost up to 2.6GHz and 1.7GHz Dual-Core i7 with Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz option available. Each model has a 128GB configuration and a 256GB configuration available, with the 256GB model being upgradeable to 512GB SSD.
    1.3 GHz (Core i5) or 1.7 GHz (Core i7)
    MacBook Air, 13", Early 2014:
    On April 29, 2014 Apple released an updated MacBook Air featuring faster processors and better battery life. The standard configurations also saw a price drop in most regions.
    1.4 GHz (Core i5) or 1.7 GHz (Core i7)
    MacBook Pro, 13", Retina, Late 2013:
    At the Apple Special Event on October 22, 2013, Apple announced that it had updated the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display. Both versions feature the new Intel Haswell chipset.
    2.4 or 2.6 GHz (Core i5) or 2.8 GHz (Core i7)
    MacBook Pro, 13", Retina, Mid 2014:
    On July 29, 2014 Apple announced updated prices and processors for their Haswell Macbook Pro with Retina Display.
    2.6 or 2.8 GHz (Core i5) or 3.0 GHz (Core i7)
    I would go for the Pro Retina since the display is much better.

  • Is there any performance difference between unique and no unique index

    Hi,
    We are working with both databases Oracle and MS-SQL and we have an open channel to MS-SQL server core team.
    We got the word from them that there is a difference between unique and no unique index from the optimizer perspective, i.e. the optimizer knowing that the index is unique may choose a more suitable plan for running a specific query, we're still trying to find a specific example.
    Anyway, since we do not have an open channel to Oracle core, I thought maybe one of you guys knows something about Oracle optimizer behavior on this issue.
    I am interested verified answers from certified sources and not suggestions or thoughts.
    Thanks in advanced,

  • Are there any technical Differences between stanard R3 and ISU

    Hello everyone,
    I have recently been speaking to a client who is running ISU.  They are asking for assistance with thier landscape from a technical perspective (BASIS and DB).  i.e. monitoring db growth, reorgs, etc.
    Now, I have been working in BASIS for over 10 years now, and am very comfortable with the above rols.  My question however is -  are there any "technical" differences between the standard SAP system, and ISU?  or are the differences mainly seen on the functional side?
    Thank you very much for any insight any of you can provide.
    Kind regards
    Richard Rog

    Hi Richard,
    I have been a Basis administrator for IS-U/CCS systems for 7 years.  The points Juris made are correct. 
    There are no new transactions or procedures for maintaining and monitoring an ISU system.  ISU "sits" on top of R/3.  The main ISU transaction for customer contact CIC0 has an HTML component that needs an ITS server.  In a 4.6C system you will need to maintain an external ITS.  In ECC 6.0 you will have an integrated ITS.  The main difference from a Basis perspective is support pack application. 
    In 4.6C ISU is an add-in installed in SAINT.  There are conflict resolution support packages (CRT's) that are installed at the same time the SAP_APPL support packages are applied.  In fact SPAM recognizes the ISU add-in and won't let you upgrade APPL (and sometimes Basis) support packs without the CRT's.
    In ECC 6.0 IS-U isn't an add-in any more and has it's own support packs in module IS-UT.  IS-U must be turned on though during an installation or upgrade.  This is done in SPRO with "Activate Business Funcitons".

  • There is a difference between the document total and its components

    Hi!
    I have an error message "There is a difference between the document total and its components" when I want to create an InventoryGenEntry
    the problem arises from time to time and my customer must do the document two or three times before it is created.
    I have seen in this forum and in notes that this is probably being caused by a Rounding.
    I am using 2 digits for amounts, 4 digits for prices, 6 digits for rates and 3 digits for quantities.
    For information my customer use SAP 2005 and the patch level 46.
    This problem happened only in InventoryGenEntry. how can I modifiy parameters to resolve this problem?
    thank you for your help.
    Best Regards
    Séverine

    Hi Séverine,
    Do you find any additional code added to SBO_SP_Transaction stored procedure. A similar issue with stock transfer fixed in later patch. Please test in latest patch.

  • Is there a performance difference between Automation Plug-ins and the scripting system?

    We currently have a tool that, through the scripting system, merges and hides layers by layer groups, exports them, and then moves to the next layer group.  There is some custom logic and channel merging that occasionally occurs in the merging of an individual layer group.  These operations are occuring through the scripting system (actually, through C# making direct function calls through Photoshop), and there are some images where these operations take ~30-40 minutes to complete on very large images.
    Is there a performance difference between doing the actions in this way as opposed to having these actions occur in an automation plug-in?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for the reply.    I ended up just benchmarking the current implementation that we are using (which goes through DOM from all indications, I wasn't the original author of the code) and found that accessing each layer was taking upwards of 300 ms.  I benchmarked iterating through the layers with PIUGetInfoByIndexIndex (in the Getter automation plug-in) and found that the first layer took ~300 ms, but the rest took ~1 ms.  With that information, I decided that it was worthwhile rewriting the functionality in an Automation plug-in.

  • Would there be a problem with the warranty in the UK if bought in USA? Plus is there a big difference between US and UK keyboards? Thanks

    Hi, I'm from the UK and in the USA for a week. I'm thinking of purchasing an Air. Would there be a problem with the warranty in the UK if bought in the US? Plus is there a big difference between US and UK keyboards?
    Cheers
    G

    There are subtle differences on a British layout, mainly having to do with the top line (shift numbers), to permit the use of European monetary symbols. There are a few other keys different (note the enter key).
    Here are the basic layouts. Obviously the MBA won't have an eject key, as the power key resides in that location.

  • Is there a big difference between 17 & 16 wat subwoofer ?

    Hey users ,
    I was making a compare between Inspire 4.1 4400 & PCWorks 5.1 LX520 .
    I got shocked when I discovered that the 4400 subwoofer is 7 wat
    &the 520 subwoofer is only 6 wat !!
    So , Is there a big difference between 7 & 6 wat subwoofer ?
    and I know which in the two models are better ?
    especially in music & games .

    That RAM is soldered in. No sockets. No upgrading later.
    Your question is:
    ¿Will I EVER need the 16GB in the time I expect to own this MacBook?
    --NO, save $200 and if you ever run short, sell the machine and buy a different one.
    --ELSE, spend the extra US$200 and don't think about it again.

    Software support of graphics card is key.   If no graphics card is mentioned in software specs, then it can be ignored.  Mostly games and high end image and video graphics software are affected.
