(I know there is an option to make the stuff bigger, but I dual-screen it... and i dont want to change it on my monitor) In that case, you don't really need such a high resolution then. The moderate boost from 480 to 720 lines of resolution is apparently sufficient for your purposes, and you should be fine with 1024x768 (or 1366x768 with a 16:9 aspect ratio display) on your PC. I'm curious as to what you would have thought of PAL video, which has about 576 lines of resolution albeit at 50hz per field (25fps). For most people, even 480 lines is sufficient. And at 5feet. I just choke on nonHD content. Not being able to see each eyelash, each wrinkle, each speck of facial hair... You just dont know what your missing untill you have one and spend time watching it. I'll live I'm still using S-Video connections, and am more than happy with the results.
I actually run my 15inch monitor at 1280x1024. and I really dont see a point in 1600x1200 on any monitors smaller than 17inch. sieanr - Nice to see your as dumb as ever.
