In the early days of the Macintosh, Steve Jobs wanted what was on screen to be exactly the same size as the printers that were available would print it out. That's also the reason for the sense pin coding and limiting each size of monitor to only one resolution. That's also the reason for not having user controls for adjusting both horizontal and vertical screen dimensions. You're only supposed to adjust the vertical size so stuff that's supposed to be round will be round. ;) However, for a certain few Apple NuBus videocards there are two old utilities for increasing the resolution displayed on certain Apple monitors. One was MaxAppleZoom. Neither utility works with the built in video on any Mac. ===== Subatomic conspiracy group: The Free Mesons.
