well, I could have predicted that response from you. I added my monitor information knowing that you would take the bait and use that as your reason for making the changes. it sounds reasonable but it is just not the case. Had you started out that way a couple of years ago, you maybe could have made that argument. But screen are larger now because people want to see more.

I recently bought a Dell computer for my daughter and ex-wife. It sold for $499 and came with a 17 in monitor and with the resolution set at 1024. I visited with them last week. And even my ex, who would admit to being a ditsy blonde AND computer illiterate, knew how to maximize the browser window and cover up any other tasks that were running.

And that is the cheapest model they sell ( I did get a bigger hard drive, cd burner and dvd player of them ). So if they are selling their entry level computer with a 17 in monitor what do you suppose their higher-end models come with?

Well, nothing like dumbing-down FUDForum to work with the lowest common denominator.

One thing I can count on: if I suggest an alternate treatment for something, it will entrench you in your position. I think it is hilarious. Laughing

I think these design changes are a step in the wrong direction for FUDForum
( this comment alone will ensure their permanent adoption by you Very Happy ).
And that makes me sad. Sad
