I have 1024x768 on a screen, now what size? Slightly larger than an A4
sheet (which is 21 x 29.7 cm)...
:echo sqrt(22.5 * 22.5 + 30.3 * 30.3) / 2.54
14.858437
hm., let's say 15 inches. That font size is "just" readable for menus;
for email text, web pages or edit text I use larger sizes.
Best regards,
Tony.
