This indicates that monitors and TVs might not accept an
unencrypted video signal over HDMI -- that it would have to be HDCP
encrypted.

I think Rako is a bit confused.

I agree that some of what was said doesn't quite add up.

There is no reason for a display to not accept a HDCP-less signal.

I agree, but this isn't the question.

There may be displays out there that behave this way, but it wouldn't
be the first time a bug or misfeature made it out the door.

It is certainly a misfeature unless the HDCP license requires it.

The article states:

        The Mitsubishi LT-46231 DVI input starts looking for HDCP at
        resolutions higher than 1280×720 pixels.

Can we determine if this is true.

I also wonder about this:

This clearly states that White Box computers won't be able to play HD-DVDs. This makes even less sense since this I thought that this was a software issue and there is no way Vista is going to know who assembled your system -- drivers are for components, not for the entire system.
