Paul, >>What was the first thing that intrigued you about the 17" monitor? Well, I guess it was that size DOES matter. (grin) Yep, you could use Topaz 8 instead of Topaz 11 in 640×480 mode, for instance. But I personally just thought it was more comfortable to have everything larger. I used to have almost 20/10 vision and now it's down to 20/20, and I wonder if it's staring at computer screens for the past 12 years that has done that. (Could just be age I spose. 🙂 The larger text was just more comfortable to read. I really don't think the graphics looked any worse; 17" isn't quite as drastic a jump as 19". Sure, 320×200 pixels are more noticeable, but you also tend to get more "into" games and such with the larger monitor so you don't notice the pixels because you're not staring at a computer screen, darnit, you're blasting Kilrathi scum! 🙂 …Denny
