My highest res screen is currently 109PPI and individual pixels are clearly discernible but I have to get up a bit closer than normal, in the past I've had Cornerstone 19" CRT monitors (150PPI) on special cards running 2048 pixels in the horizontal but I don't think that they were really anywhere near as sharp as todays TFT screens. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
