Oh, probably.  But, my way is "future proofed"!  ;)  For the mutants of the 
future with super vision. :)

I imagine I would shrink my fonts a little bit (which many people consider 
unreadable) on a higher DPI screen.  I currently run 5pt for text in my 
ksysguard applet.  (Yes, I can read it, partially because it's isolated -- 
larger clocks of text require larger [7 or 8pt] fonts.)  There could be 
people out there that actually want 1pt fonts (or just people with horribly 
misconfigured DPI settings).
