If you're trying to convince someone of something, you don't just say, "Well, that's just how it is. Accept it and like it." You provide evidence. You've provided none. If you're done, then you're done, but don't except me to just believe everything you say.


It shouldn't require convincing, that is the thing.  Your premise, unless I am misinterpreting what you are saying, is that the mass market (read: any human being who consumes entertainment in any form or fashion) is more concerned with the resolution of a PC screen (a market that is well documented to be on the decline) than they are the resolution of a TV.  If you need to be convinced that your situation of caring more about your PCs resolution is more niche based than mass market based, then that is on you.


But that is your opinion, and you have no evidence to prove this. Then you come here expecting people to just take your word as law. Sorry, it doesn't work that way.

So you think that more people that consume entertainment are concerned with the resolution of their computers than they are the resolution of their TVs?  Fine, I will go ahead and support my theory, then I will be interested in your support.

 

As of 2006, the average American household had more TVs than humans in it:

The PC market continues to decline:

Based on those two things, I say that more people care about their TV resolution than they do their PC resolution.  Your turn.
