Using a 1024x768 plasma with a computer is not a good idea. Like you said that is a 4:3 resolution and your computer set to that resolution will be expecting a 4:3 screen so everything will be stretched horizontally. As has been stated they have a pixel that is wider than it is tall.

Generally the LCD monitors will be much better for hooking up to computers and you can get a 42" 1080p with 4 years of warranty for roughly the same price as a 42" plasma with one year of warranty. I just bought my wife a 37" 1080p LCD with 4 years of warranty for under $900 delivered from newegg.
