That's a 720p display (well, technically a 1366 x 768 display, but 720p is
the closest HD resolution). The 1080i listed in the specs is a "supported
format" that it can accept as an input, but it's not what it outputs. It
outputs a 720p image, no matter what the input is.

The native resolution is the one that people are talking about when they're
talking about 720p vs. 1080p LCD displays. Using "supported resolution"
would be worthless, since pretty much all 720p displays support 1080i, and
many 1080p displays only support up to 1080i as an input, and not 1080p.
