With my mid 2007 macbook whenever I hook up my computer to my Samsung 46in LED TV an option for 1080p pops up on the display resolution and I was wondering could the MBA push 1080p when hooked up to an external display? Thanks

I have not hooked it up to my tv yet but it runs my 1080 p Dell monitor fine so a tv would be same resolution

It is cheaper and better to buy a mediaplayer for less than 200 euro if you want to play HD video files on a 46" display.

I bought a non-Apple HDMI adapter from the Apple store, hooked it up to our 50" Pioneer and was very impressed with the quality. Most of the stuff we watch is 720p and not 1080p though.
