That's hilarious, and horrible. A 32" monitor/TV having only 1920x1080 resolution. Everything would be terribly grainy. Even that resolution on a 21" monitor is still very average, and dull. My 13" notebook monitor has something like 2500x1600. The detail and vibrancy and clarity and saturation is quality all-around.
My Asus developed vertical lines after just 6 years of use. Never buying their monitors again. I got some Chinese brand Koorui one now (27", 1440p, 75Hz), it's decent even if colors need a lot of calibration, especially considering it costs about half of what LG and other charge for the same.
