And surely with the amount of graphic grunt they have they'll be looking to
HDTV, as well. Are there any specs on the maximum resolution of the PSX2?
I'd expect it to be able to deliver games at 2000x1000x72Hz (which I believe
is HDTV res) if the PSX2 actually achieves the advertised specs. At a
minimum, it should be able to do 1024x768 on a digital TV.
