Does anyone still use less than 1024 x 768?

My old laptop ran at 1024 x 768, but my new superlaptop from space runs at 1280 x 800 (it's a widescreen)

I use it, Syd. Mainly because I can put my refresh rate to 100 hz.

My monitor at home is 6 years old, so it runs at 1024 x 768

At work though, my monitor runs at 1280 x 1024.

mmmkay, cool. I was thinking about using some slightly bigger pictures in my next article... just wanted to make sure no one was living in the dark ages and still running at 800 x 600.

same here.

online its 1600x1200

w/certain games, it differs depending on how much my framerate suffers.

leisurely, I put my monitor @ 1280x720 but for work, I run it @ 19xx by 1080. If im surfing the net, I'll go blind with the high res, but it's great for drawing.

I use 1600x1200 for my desktop, 1280x768 for my laptop, and 1024x768 for my mother's PC (which might as well be mine by now)
