17" LCDs bring the new problem that their native resolutions are too

Noooo! *Never* wind back native resolution on a TFT screen! Everything becomes
blurry that way. Instead, use your higher resolution for crisper images and
text and help those myopic colleagues by simply choosing larger default /
system fonts. On my KDE desktop in Linux, it's a single configuration menu to
do this, and I believe in Windows it's the same.
Horst,
They aren't my colleagues, they are my customers, and every time I leave
the LCD monitors at the native resolution they complain that the text in
their software, usually MD is too small for them to read, so 1024*768 it
is, though some would prefer 800X600 I'm sure.
I hate it too.
