What do you guys think? Apple has an optional upgrade on their MacBook Pro ($100 for a Hi-res 1920x1200 screen). Some people say you gotta go with it if you're going to be doing video editing, so you can view 1080p (aspect ratio of 16:9) footage properly.
The thing is, I'm going to be using my laptop for word processing, surfing the internet. Not JUST video editing. From what I've read, going with the Hi-res makes text smaller (and thus harder to read). I've decided not to go with the Hi-res, but I'm still curious about what 1080p looks like on a 1680 x 1050 screen.
Does it just have some really thin horizontal bars running along the top and bottom? If that's all, I couldn't care less.
Thanks for the input guys. It's much appreciated.
