Hey kids!!  Guess what 92dpi on a 17-inch monitor becomes on a
21-incher?

That's right!  72dpi, just like a Macintoy!!!

Those of you who've been asking for Mac emulation, I guess some of
your prayers have been answered.  You can now have the same lousy
display quality!

Neither is 21 inches, except for the visually impaired.
