The plasma doesnt have a lower resolution. Your GeForce will be
rendering an image at 800x600 to its framebuffer, but the output will be
interpolated to standard interlaced PAL resolution. So it will show quite
comfortably on any screen (although it may be less then clear!). If you are
keen on using your computer with a plasma I would look out for a screen
which has either a VGA (15pin DSUB) or DVI connection so you can bypass the
conversion to inerlaced PAL.
