But I ask the question is bigger always better? I am
the guy who still
uses 640x480 cause this way he can read the screen and the menus at
the same time. I suspect the wheel of computer design will turn again
towards 'smaller' CISC (pdp8-style?) machines as the interconnect
in chips between modules is becoming larger compared to the the gate
speeds.
I never understand this- why not kick it up to 1027x768 and use the
Windows Appearance controls to make the menus and screen fonts larger?
That way graphics look nice and text is still readable and things
you have to click on (buttons can be made bigger too) are bigger
targets...
It's the best of both worlds, instead of being limited to one...
