I have a 15" 2880 by 1800 display on my laptop, which has a pretty good PDF reader which will show two pages side-by-side. The resolution is high enough that it's as good as reading off paper, albeit scaled down to about 70% because the screen is physically smaller than A4.
I use the old TV format low res 800x600 windows for windows because I can't read TINY STUFF.
Plug my laptop into a nice HiDPI monitor -- or indeed any good-enough laptop into one of those cheap 4K monitors which use scummy UHD TV panels -- and PDFs become gloriously large and crisp. Go on, find €300 or so and treat yourself to a new display.
I love music so all my money is spent nice flat ELECTROSTATIC speakers and VALVE amps, and NEW VINYL.
Modern computers are just to play with on the web and read mail and download DR WHO. Ben.
