Oops.
I keep forgetting. When it comes to any kind of display, (be it on a PC, laptop or TV) there are generally two kinds of people. Those who like displays that are BIG (that be me) and those who like displays that are really small. :)
I should have said "middle of the road resolutions are soooo 20th century".
On a related note, there are people who have netbooks *&* desktops with 30" monitors.
I just don't get small. But I'm weird like that. :)
