couple of thoughts....

it's useless saying "768p", its 720p. The only time you will see those extra 48 lines of resolution is with an analog signal from a computer.

also, 1080i is a useless statement. a 720p tv has max resolution of 768 vertical lines. You're not going to grow over 300 lines of resolution like some kind of miracle. if you set a 720p TV to 1080i, all your doing is watching in 720i.

theres only a few tv's that can do 1080i (other then 1080p TV's of course) and those are some Hitachi's...

----------------------------------------------------------

Now back to your question. Insignia is a garbage television. If you go to Best Buy and talk to a salesmen about them, they will feed you this retail story of how Insignia is made by LG. Well a slight reality check for everyone... LG provides the parts for roughly 60% of all flat panel TV's on the market. (the only TV's I know of to NOT be made with LG parts are Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, and Pioneer, and oddly enough, they are regarded to be the best 4 TV's on the market).

My personal opinion on what TV someone should get, Samsung LCD's slightly better then Sony and are also cheaper. Plasma's, Panasonic's are pretty close if not even with Pioneer's, and are alot cheaper.
