Not necessarily. This is highly dependent on the users(s) of the monitor. I built my folks a new PC last year (Athlon II X2 Rigor 2.8 w/ ATI north bridge video) and got them a 24" Asus widescreen LCD to go with it. Dad is 73 Mom is 68. Dad wears trifocals and Mom bifocals. No matter what font size (WinXP) I selected, the native 1920x1080 panel res just didn't work for them although it was perfect for me. I ended up setting the res at 1280x720 with small fonts. It's not as sharp (to me) but perfect for them, and they can't fathom how they got along with a 17" MAG CRT for for the 5 prior years. Dad no longer has to lean forward and tilt his head back simultaneously. I'm surprised the old 17" CRT didn't cause a permanent craning of his neck. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
