For sure...also everything starts to either get too big/small or elongate.

1920*1200. 24" LCD so I'm obviously going to use the optimal resolution. :)




If there is a final hour, let's hope for a higher power. One by one, and two by two, I have ammo, what about you?

I run 1440x900 on my 19" widescreen LCD and 1280x1024 on my 17" CRT

standard resolutions:
15" 1024x768
17-19" 1280x1024
17" wide 1280x800
19" Wide 1440x900
20-21" wide 1680x1050
21" 1600x1200
23-24" wide 1920x1200

(let me know if I am off on any of these)

So obviously 1280x1024 on a 19" will be bigger than it is on a 17" so that extra little bit will help those with not so perfect vision.


Thanks HL and Corsair!
