This has nothing to do with the panel. It is the same panel used in both residential models & commercial models. The difference is in the feature set, styling, and 'arguably' more robust power supply.
24/7 is marketing BS, residential models can usually go 24/7 just as long. There is no need for the marketing department to mention this for residential use. So you only see EVERY manufacture of a commercial display talk about "How there display is made to go 24/7". Well if the residential model couldn't as well, I think that to be really shitty.
This isnt exactly true.
Most residential panels may go 24/7 for a week.. Maybe even a month or 2. but not for 6months to a year. and more.
The power supplies are important parts of commercial displays, but more important is the cooling... It needs efficient cooling that's not going to fail.
Think about how often we seen residential panels at bars and other places that run them to death. How good do they look? How often are they Matched? They dont have 5 different brands of TV's all over the bar because they are making a statement. Its because they had to replace panels randomly because they broke.
That being said, a 10+year old 1024x768 panel is still junk.
