It's really nice to be painting an area, realize you need higher res.
People are probably going to imagine they look higher res though.
Especially with a high res main monitor (1680x1050 in my case)
It's already higher res than any other screen of comparable size out there.
In fact it's higher res than most 15 inch Windows laptops, which are like 1366x768.
Sandy bridge and high res would be a great reason to upgrade!
To upgrade to high res is another $5.
Because of this, you saw very few games in high res.
Range is one - for example, I can't 'see' the stars - the high res only works on close objects.
The screen resolution is not an issue for me, barely noticeable next to other laptops with higher res.
