widescreen projector help

I wanted some help from those with experience with projectors

When changing the resolution on a normal monitor the pixels are stretched to cover the entire monitor.

I wanted to know would a projector use the same space on a screen running at the resolution 1280x1024 as 1280x800? or would it also stretch the pixels

thanks for any help :)

all but crt (no longer produced), such as dlp, lcos, lcd, etc, projectors behave same as a regular monitor and stretch the image if it isn't native res. with varying centered or stretch options depending on models, same as monitors.
