From a couple websites that I like:(easy)
http://www.crutchfield.com/infocenter/home/S-wRh6xBrW16V/dvd.html
"But progressive-scan signals are only available through the DVD player's component video output, and only digital TVs ("HDTV-ready" or full HDTV models) accept progressive signals."

If you want to keep the peace at the office, I would just let your colleague think that he is right. He doesn't need a know-it-all showing him up. Otherwise, I will happily come over and help you physically beat the truth about progressive scan into this guy.
Follow Ups:
He's a middle manager and an "engineer-type," so arguing with him is almost as easy as trying to convince a teenage girl that she is wrong. (read: hardly worth the effort). But I was just curious.My brother used to work here (in a different engineering department adjacent to this fellow). I know he doesn't particularly care for this guy. Between the three of us, I'm sure we could beat him senseless with his own severed limbs. Paints quite a pretty picture, now?
I think he's just upset that (as of late) people have been coming to me for A/V advise instead of him. He doesn't hide is opinion that "[I am] a fool" for perferring Toshiba flat screens over Sony flat screens. Engineers, sheesh.
Anyway, that's all.
