Actually, I work at 1024X1268, and I do use wallpaper, but it's only that
tiny "paper.bmp" file from WIN30. It's just easier on the eyes and doesn't take
much memory. Besides, it keeps me from having my son sneak in and put on one of
his own creations….
With the price of larger monitors now finally coming down (although nowhere
near enough yet) and video cards in the two hundred buck or so range supporting
at least 1024 X 768, I'm not surprised it's becoming popular. Alas, so long as
we're nailed to the bitmap cross, everything has to be put out to the least
common denominator. Now that we have scalable fonts, one hopes MicroSoft will
eventually discover scalable graphics….
