Last time I tried this, the mouse was so laggy it was impossible to use. I might give it another go at some point tho, maybe even on a mini-iTX motherboard in a cube case ... for that full NeXT experience. :)

My personal story: Last year I went from a Dell 24" (1920x1200) to a Benq 32" (2560x1440). I deliberate didn't choose a 4k because I knew that without at least 150% scaling, my poor 48 year old eyes wouldn't be able to
