Would a 720p 32 inch HDTV look the same as a 1080p 32inch using HDMI for the computer screen?

My dad wanted to buy a new HDLED TV for watching TV and for his computer monitor as well. When I plug the HDMI cable from the computer to the TV I was able to get the best picture at 1280x720 resolution I assume since its 720p. I was wondering if this HDLED TV was 1080p and I was able to raise it to 1920x1080 would it look alot better? My dad thinks and I think it's blurry at 720p and would look better at higher resolution. Would we notice anything different if we got a 1080p HDLED TV instead?

Looking for some advise~

Comparing two HDTVs of the same size (ie 32'') via the same cable/connection (ie HDMI), the 1080p will give a superior look over the 720p for sure. This is especially noticeable when they are used for computer purposes (eg web browsing, text processing).

As a computer display, you generally sit closer and the much larger pixel size of the 720p HDTV becomes a significant factor.
