They are misleading by specifically mentioning 1080p video playback performance when the display has only 768 vertical pixels.

- cryptoz 14y agoIt has video out. Also, the 1080p was mentioned during performance discussion, not screen resolution, so I hardly think it's misleading. The discussion was about video decoding power, which not only can this machine do, but it can do with purpose given the video out.
- dman 14y agoWhich x86 machine shipping in recent times has had trouble with 1080p output ?
- cryptoz 14y agoNot sure. Every computer I own has trouble, though. Maybe I'm just due for a series of upgrades.

- lancewiggs 14y agoI for one was mislead - until I saw the comment above. While technically you may be correct, the acid test is whether a normal resonable uninformed person would be misled. This is probably not a community with too many of those - quite the opposite, and in a good way.
- walkon 14y agoThey should qualify their statement to indicate this resolution only applies when it is hooked up to a significantly better display. I don't think the anticipated typical use case for a Chromebook is to hook it up to better displays as some sort of media center.
