There are probably more misconceptions about resolution and image stability than any other aspect of plasma monitors. Some believe that the simple answer to this equation is that the more pixels a monitor offers, the better the picture it will provide. In fact, due to the very nature of plasma technology itself, more pixels can actually increase the amount of artifacts in your image. Resolution is, strictly speaking, the total number of pixels present in a display measure in horizontal rows by vertical columns. Most people think that when it comes to resolution more is better, but this is not always the case. Some plasma displays with a high pixel resolution use an interlaced driving method that alternately lights every other horizontal row of pixels present to produce an image. A by-product of interlacing is flicker, which can produce an image that is unstable, jittery and difficult to look at. A plasma monitor with progressive scan produces a more stable and usable image even if the resolution of the progressive scan panel is lower. Another important factor to consider is the actual shape of the individual pixels. Some manufacturers design their plasma monitors with rectangular-shaped pixels, while others design based on square-shaped pixels. The industry standards for computer graphics are based on square-shaped pixels.
