Games "Yesterday, I was among a few lucky journalists in New York City who got a rare chance to play a collection of new games on the eagerly awaited Microsoft Xbox 360 gaming console. In short, I was impressed. The brain, capable of one teraflop, is three symmetrical IBM cores running at 3.2 GHz each. Stellar graphics performance is provided by a 500 MHz custom ATI graphics processor and backed up by super fast memory, 512 MB of GDDR3 RAM that is shared with the CPUs via a unified memory architecture."

Well 1280x720p that a 720p HDTV can support is reasonably close.

If you happen to have a 1080i you get 1920x1080 (interlaced).

I'm fairly sure the XBOX360 at least can't output a true 1080p signal however.

So yeah, on a crap tv it's pointless as a computer, but on an HDTV it might have some use.
