Is a Plasma TV's picture with a resolution of 1024 x 1024 on the most part
always better/clearer than a Plasma Tv with one of 1024 x 768?

On this example I was comparing a Samsung HP-P4261(1024 x 768) to a
Sanyo PDP42H2w(1024 x 1024)

Thanks

Depends on the aspect ratio, does it not? 1024x1024 would imply a square
screen, unless the pixels are not square, or are not equally spaced both
horizontally and vertically. 1024x768, on the other hand, is a 4:3 aspect
ratio. I assume the models are the same size (42")?

They both use rectangular pixels. 1024x768 is 4x3 and 1024x1024 is 1x1.
The 1024x1024 uses even more rectangular pixels and I would avoid it (I
say that without having seen it). Neither of them is truly HD, and both
are what I call 'pushing it'!

Even Dell is selling a plasma with this pixel layout, and our marketing
team insists it's "ok" to call it HD.

If I bought either, it would be the 1024x768.

Speaking of plasma, there's a 42" LG 1024x768 plasma WITH TUNER for
around $1500 coming out in June. I don't have detailed info on it yet,
but can provide more info when I get it. I might have to pick one up for
the bedroom...

Except the Sony and Hitachi 1024x1024 plasmas have always gotten good
reviews. They are said to do a good job on 1080i content since
they're set-up as 'interlaced' 512 panels of vertical
resolution--just subtract a few pixels on each end of your 540 and
things scale well.
The 1024x768 seems to be the midpoint between the EDTV and the
1366x768 panels. And, most scalars seem to have a setting for the
1024x768 panels, so they're pretty common. And, since many find the
EDTV as a improvement over a SDTV, these are certainly an upgrade.
A coworker just purchased the Panasonic TH-50PX50U, and I'm starting
to help him set it up. Been looking through the Manual to see how he
can hook up his computer.

If the digital display is not native 1280X720 or 1920X1080 then all scan
rates will be scaled and the quality of the image will be directly
related to that. Many videophiles and critical viewers have purchased
external scalers for these displays for that very reason.

As Rodolfo has pointed out 1080P displays are still being tested for the
ability to bypass the internal scaler when fed a 1080P scan rate.
