I just don't get reasoning. I have a hi-res display as well, like you, but widescreen at 1920x1200. I can easily read two 8.5x11 documents on my screen, side by side, with the menu at the top. It's all very legible to someone like you and me who appreciate the pixels. > I am mystified that these wider, shorter screens are accepted in > east Asian countries with vertical writing systems.
