1280x800 dvi to hdmi source to 1080p tv = 1080p?

Can a laptop with 1280x800 resolution output 1080p on my Sony Bravia 1080p tv through dvi to hdmi?

Answer:
You are confusing the picture resolution of your screen with the capabilities of your graphics card.

In order to have 1080p output, your graphics card needs to support a resolution of 1920x1080 at 60 Hz

(As a side note, 1280x800 is HD but not 1080p)
NO, it will never be true 1080p which stands for progressive. But there is a de-interlacer built in to the Sony Bravia 1080p tv so it will look very good.
I think this might help you a bit. Right now the only source of a 1080p picture is the Blueray DVD. So if you are not using a Blueray DVD player or the PS3(which plays Blueray DVD), then you are not watching 1080p. There is no 1080p broadcast on TV and if you plan on using your laptop make sure it has a Blueray DVD player. And those laptops cost a lot. Here is a link to one.
