Wow, so many professional engineers and technicians around here.

I've been playing PS1/PS2 games mostly as of late. My 24" 1080p TV does a great job displaying those older games and dvds at 480i/p, and playing Xenogears at 720p on the PSTV doesn't look bad at all.

Really, I can only tell the difference between 720p/1080p if very close to the TV, or on the 42" and 55" TVs I have access to.... And sitting less than 3 feet away from a TV isn't very healthy.

Get a 32 1080p screen as you originally intended, they're affordable and get the job done. Although I bet 1080p looks great on a 44" or bigger if seating more than 3 feet away.

Why isn't it healthy? Maybe there was some truth to that with early CRT tvs, yet I don't see any widespread epidemic from people using PC monitors all over the world since the eighties.

It's a myth. http://kidshealth.org/en/parents/vision-facts-myths.html Sit where ever you like.
