Re: Best screen option for D2005

Hi Jim,

Pray tell what screensize does your laptop have?? I find that at 20.1"
the resolution of 1600x1200 is fine, but I've seen 15.1" screens where
even a "young man" such as myself has trouble reading the text. Using
large fonts then kinds defeats the purpose of the higher resolution,
IMHO. It would have to be at least 17" or higher to make 1600x1200 a bit
readable, probably even 19" as a minimum...

Oh yeah, I totally agree! But using a beamer with a 1600 (or even a
1280) resolution means lots of people in the back - of even halfway -
won't be able to read the text in the code editor....
