    What Resolution Do You Run?

    Just wondering what resolution you people run. I Always run 1600x1200 and I just switched to 1024x768 to check a small picture and WOAH it's huge, back to 1600x1200.

    I usually run some 17xx x 14xx, but I changed video cards, so now i run the unbearable huge resolution of 1600x1200. Everything is too big on the screne.

    You'd be amazed how many people at work use 800 x 600. And they're only inches from the screen!

    I hav a crappy STB Velocity 128 card with 8MB of mem and an NV3T chipset. My dad runs 640x480 256 color on his GeForce3. What a waste.

    Same for me. My monitor can easily go higher, but my eyes can't.
