    Hi I have question about screen res. If I have a 1400 x 900 display, does that mean that I have 900 pixels going vertically in a line then 1400 going across the screen. Kind of like the permitter of the screen?

    <---- 1400 ----> going across

    | 900 going up down

    is that correct?

    If this is so then i have 1,200,000 pixels or 1.2 megapixels. That mean digital cameras have way more pixels than computer screens correct?
