Come now. Maybe your eyes are that bad; mine certainly aren't. This is being written on a 19", 1280x1024 greyscale monitor on which I can *clearly* distinguish single-pixel differences. The "/" character in a tiny font looks very choppy, for instance. I think it would take a resolution of around 6000x4000 to make these pixel jaggies disappear. (And an expen$ive CPU and memory system to push the pixels around...)
