Computer monitors, and the dual dvi spec, however, are capable of 1080p 60fps, and there's little reason that the 1080 line HDTVs they sell us should not be capable of it. If they were, we could feed them 1080i with bob, and have 1080p 60fps resolution for our computer generated materials and other specialized video. We should encourage them to do it.
