Amen to that. I have macular degeneration in my retinae. It's not really having any effect, yet. However, I'm starting to note that my fonts sizes are creeping up. I *dream* of an LCD that's greater than 21" but uses a much lower native resolution. I'd take 640x480, 800x600, 1024x786, or 1280x1024 (at most). Incidentally, have you seen any new 4k screens? I got one early on and boy what a mistake that was. I didn't even keep it for a week. You can jack up your terminal fonts to 14 or 18 and it's still tiny and nearly unreadable. In applications that you can't adjust easily, it's a nightmare. You can't read *anything*. Playing some games in 4k was cool, it looked marginally better than 1920x1080, but not much. The only thing that was better or more detailed (in my case, folks, in my case) was photo-editing. -Swift
