- barrkel 13y agoThe DPI adjustment doesn't affect everything. For example, from what I've read things like Photoshop don't scale well, as the toolbar buttons remain the same size even if the menu etc. scales up. Edit: here's some screenshots https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7re6a9_3U2nOFhZNU1NQWFlblU&usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7re6a9_3U2nOFhZNU1N... from: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/52771357 http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/52771357 Download full resolution and view full-screen on a 24" monitor to approximate the experience. Don't get me wrong, I think this is an awesome monitor, and my current secondary monitor is on the fritz so I've been researching replacements for the past few days. But even though I have the need, and I can easily afford it, I've not yet made the leap to buy.

- stephen_g 13y agoIn Windows 7 I tried it for a few minutes, but it seemed to screw up scaling in certain controls in most Windows Forms app, which is what our main product was, so I haven't used it since.
