Lively discussions on the graphic arts and publishing — in print or on the web

I was going to mention the zoom feature which apart from any system settings can be varied on my keyboard with a simple + / - key or with CTRL + / - if you don't ... or magic finger swipes if you have a touchscreen.

Even on my desktop with Windows 7 and 1920 x 1080 on a 23in screen I tend to use 145% and narrow the frame so it's not full screen.

There are a host of variations but I agree that laptops are more of a problem and why I don't think of them as a full time replacement for a desktop.

If clutter and space is a problem and portability not a requirement, I like the current All-in-One desktops and adding portablility for less frequent use by a tablet or better a hybrid laptop.
