   You might consider changing the 1650x1050 to 1680x1050 which a standard laptop screen resolution these days for 15.4" screens.

   I'm a PC, and I just got rid of Windows. I know that my decision-making abilities and judgment are inferior to those of the average user, since I've been satisfied with Vista for over a year until I took a hard look at the reality of Vista adoption, as well as what people are saying on the blogs.

   I think it's the beginning of the end of Microsoft... A few years from now PC's won't even have OSes with which users will interact... They'll be more like dumb terminals with Chrome pre-loaded on a stripped-down Linux or OSX... I've long refused the notion that "the next OS will be the Internet itself" But now I believe it... Even though I don't personally enjoy coding in "Postel-compliant" HTML + JS with tons of hacks + a copy'n'paste style, that's the way of the future. That's precisely why Silverlight ain't takin' off. No one needs a VM running in a browser when there's JS, HTML and document.write(). That idea has been dead since MS tried to push Java.

   DRM is also a failing technology, and it's the only reason behind the introduction of Vista. Everyone else is just a facade. It appears that, while the average user might be easy to fool (like me before I ditched Vista and the folks in the Mojave Experiment), Microsoft has grossly "misunderestimated" the collective brain of the Internet community.

    ExDotNetter, I don't quite follow your connection with Windows Vista and DRM. I also am pretty sure that the "only reason behind the introduction of Vista" was not DRM. You should read Ed Bott's blog post about DRM and the FUD about DRM + Vista:

    Thanks for the comment!
