Good question ! I run my screen at 1280, 1024 100Hz. At this
resolution I can get two A4 pages side by side. They are at a size I
can read comfortably. I need to wear specs for reading and close
work ! As far as images are concerned I tend to view them at about two
thirds of the screen area. Again I can put two images on the screen
along with the tools to edit them, stich them etc.
