I guess you meant to say "smaller". I've seen people do this, usually those with poorer eyesight, but with LCD technology it just isn't true. By setting an LCD to a lower resolution, the text looks larger to them, so they mistakenly think the picture is clearer. But it isn't.
First, know that electrically speaking, LCDs should *always* be set to their native resolution. Now, to compensate for the sharper (harder to read) text, turn on and tune ClearType. If additional help is needed, go into Appearance and select a larger font size. Oh, and on the fringing - if color appears where it shouldn't, the monitor is defective and should be returned for warranty repair *without delay* as the warranty clock is running. Obviously you need to make sure the resolution is set correctly before you can make this judgment. On Wed, Jul 23, 2008 at 12:01 AM, Rev.
