Heh, both of the laptops I still use are like this : one is a midrange one from ~2012 and has 768 lines, the other a high end one from ~2016 and in theory 1440 lines, but I run it at 720. In both cases it's because the screens are too small for the typical assumptions with regards to pixel density programs use to have more lines, their graphic cards are frankly not good enough to be able to run more than that, and it saves on battery life. But then laptops aren't for serious work, that's what desktops are for ! (And nothing wrong with 1080 lines (though I prefer 1200) for a typical size desktop monitor, especially if using more than one screen.)

> But then laptops aren't for serious work, that's what desktops are for ! Where is that? I haven't seen a desktop at any workplace for more than 10 years, possibly more. Closer to 20 likely. And I mean anywhere -- neither small startups nor bigger businesses. Nobody used desktops for work, serious or otherwise. I'd say the only people I know who still use desktops are hardcore gamers (and not even most of them, either!). In any case, we're getting sidetracked. My main point was that even these entry-level laptops are better than an Oculus headset for working. My experience, YMMV, and all the standard disclaimers.
