I learned to LOVE it,

I have too! I approached the whole idea of an LCD monitor with extreme trepidation, I knew I was not going to be able to adjust to it, but I love it now. I also love using 1280x1024 screen resolution too. I was SURE that I could not adjust to that and would be going back to 800x600. Now, when I go back to 800x600 (to check the size of one of my graphics for 800x600 users), it looks just AWFUL. Everything so HUGE! I guess it is all what we get used to. That and accepting change gracefully and with an open mind. LOL.

Hooray, Mama_Bear!

Two appointments scheduled ahead of me in Aiken were 'no shows,' so I'm back earlier than I thought I could be. Just in time, I see, reading through the thread and seeing Billie and Gabz are away now.

Will get a cuppa coffee and shortly thereafter post something already formatted.

I still can't make myself use that resolution, but have set this 17" LCD flat panel at 1024 x 768. (though recommended is 1280 x 1024) I like it better than the 800 x 600 on this one, which almost screamed at me, it was so huge! But still, if *you're* using 1280 x 1024, these tables must not be wider than 6 inches on your monitor; and you HAVE to have enlarged your font for viewing, haven't you? I haven't, but the text is considerably smaller than it was at the 800 x 600 resolution I was using on the 15" LCD flat panel monitor.

THIS particular monitor was actually set where I didn't have to do anything to adjust color, brightness or anything!
