My vga monitors have a tendency to die, thus a old VGA is easy to come
by
and not have to FUCK with windows 'SAFE' mode.

I want smaller menus and buttons. I like a window filled with what ever
I
am reading, not clutter on the screen. It makes no sense to me to switch
to a
higher res and then defeat it by having bigger fonts. When I was running
Linux
I ran at 800x600 but only so I could run bigger fonts to give me a 80x25
xterm window. Also most on the games I play only run at 640x480 due to
speed
( P-150 here) or screen limitations.

I have Hi-Res, I just don't use it. This was brought to you by a
640x480 16 bit color display and the number 100110.
