I can't see anything on a 1080p screen at 12" and considering my eyesight isn't all that bad, I imagine it's not going to sell for most people.

- rayiner 14y agoThey have these things called TrueType scalable fonts. Since like the late 1980s.
- JoshTriplett 14y agoOn any modern OS, resolution and text size have little to do with each other. If you can't see anything, turn up the DPI to match the actual DPI of your display, and any well-behaved application will become readable.
- artificialidiot 14y agoExcept the web likes to pretend everything is 96dpi. Reading my sentence again, I think we can agree CSS is not well behaved.
- JoshTriplett 14y agoI don't know about Chrome, but you can fix that misfeature in Firefox with a hidden preference, and tell it to actually respect the system DPI setting. Just go to about:config and set layout.css.dpi to 0.
- meaty 14y agoFair point. Unfortunately most software doesn't behave well with that on Windows. This is a shortcoming of traditional GDI+ based Windows apps however, not of WPF based Metro apps.
