ANY Mac can out put any of the screen resolutions you seem to think are not possible to a Mac

But not naturally. Out of the box, many Macs don't output 16:9 (except 1080) for whatever reason Jobs had for that. Yes, you can download ScreenResX or some other program, but many of the Macs I've dealt with don't naturally allow for 1280x720, which is the specific resolution I want. You don't seem to understand that in the world of corporate AV, trying to get the best picture with the gear you have doesn't mean 4k or 8k or anything like that.

Macs have INTEL graphics. . . and Macbook Pros have an additional graphics card as well. They can output whatever you want, natively. You keep claiming they can't do that we do regularly and have been doing for years. I repeat, Apple Macs have been used professionally in VIDEO PRODUCTION for years in 4:3 and 16:9 output at all kinds of resolutions to various makes of monitors. . . standard and HD. . . direct to DVD, etc., or other recording or projection devices, but only you seem to be unable to figure out how to do it! SHEESH!
