I am going to guess that 1600x1200 is natural size in pixel of an LCD panel on a laptop. If so, it is not only *a* possible resolution, but the *only* resolution possible (besides 800x600 by grouping pixels 2x2). Other resultions seem possible but the pixels are only kind of sort displayed that way. This resultion has been fairly common for a couple of years now. By the way, I have a laptop with a radeon 9600 and 1400x1050 display. My desktop video card and monitor are also capable of high resolution. The only problem is a distinct lack of fixed width fonts which are readable when laptop monitor is 14" (and desktop monitor is a 19" CRT). Are there any good fonts which show up at least 3mm high at 120 dpi? > You should try a more conservative resolution.
