1080p is via the HDMI port, I reckon.

Yeah, that was the first thing I looked at on the specs. I was amazed they were going to include a 1080p screen in this machine.

I think that's very misleading. The average consumer is just going to take that claim at face value and believe they are getting a 1080p screen.

agreed. Totally misleading

Is Dell lying when they say their desktops can play 1080p? They don't even have a screen at all! Playing 1080p is more a gpu/cpu performance thing. Chromeboxes can do 1080p on 2 monitors, which is quite a feat considering their hardware.
