Hell, I run 1600x1200 on my 17 inch (16.0 viewable) on occassion, but
the 55Hz refresh is a little harsh. I generally prefer 1440x1080x62 -
the key is to NOT use 60Hz, EVER EVER EVER, cause thats the frequency
room lights blink at!

I think its funny that I can read the display from 5 feet away when
people with supposedly 20/20 vision have trouble reading it at half
that distance. My father had the same thing w/ his eyes as well, only
even more so. Except he is colorblind as well, which sorta takes away
the keenness of high-res vision.
