This thread is over a year old. Bumping it to advertise some other addon is not really good forum etiquette.

There's no box on Google to submit a post. Even if you got to a thread from Google, you presumably actually read the thread before posting (unless you're just a spammer looking for any random thread to post your spam in) which means there's really no excuse for you not having read the dates next to the posts.

Umm, you are not that old that you can use that phrase. Of course if you actually have a lawn and kids are on it...

I bet you only kept it so you could press the degauss button for the fun sound it made!

There's a tree and a bunch of ivy in between my apartment building and the sidewalk, does that count?

Only 17 inches?! How did you live?!

Though I guess now that I think about it, I had a CRT up until 2005... but it was 20". That thing was a monster to move around. Replaced it with a 23" LED, which was joined by a 27" LED in 2009 or so, and has now been replaced by another 27" LED since the poor little guy developed a permanent green pixel.

I'm rocking a 27inch 4k display right now. Beautiful. although it seems that wowinterface loads stuper tiny. (No HiDPI support yet????) So I don't use the 4k when I'm not doing any editing/gaming work.

I considered 4k when I picked up the second 27" last year, but decided it wasn't worth the extra cost, since I'd just have to zoom in on web pages twice as much, and would have even more problems with programs not respecting the Windows DPI settings. Not looking forward to the situation in 20 or 30 years when I'm literally blind.

I've been making efficient use of the zoom options available in compiz for me. But then again I'm on Linux and haven't really used windows on my own in almost... two years.
