If Shaw told me that I had to buy faster Internet because I had a 24" monitor, wouldn't that be illegal?

TVs accept 24Hz or 60Hz signals. No consumer TV accept 120Hz video signals, I'm sure of that. And no video source comes in at 120Hz, unless you hook your computer up directly and set the refresh rate that high, but it won't work because the TV doesn't support it anyway.

Which Best Buy was this, Sunridge or Deerfoot Meadows?
Whoa, didn't mean to set you off photon

This was Deerfoot Meadows. I should clarify that this is what it said on the Cable packaging, not what was passed on to me by an employee.
