Increasing the size of the term font isn't a solution for the very tiny menu fonts you get in some applications, e.g. imagemagick. For this reason, at least on my desktop with a CRT monitor, I use 1280x1024 instead of 1600x1200. There is no obvious degradation of quality, at least to my worsening eyes. On my laptop this doesn't work well because you get distortion at any resolution other than the native.
