>>>My new Dell monitor came in yesterday, but I'm having a real problem adjusting to the native resolution, 1680 x 1050. Is that the resolution you're using with you Dell LCD?

>>Exactly the same. What don't you like about the high rez?

>I'm having problems adapting to the small text. I was used to working in 1024 x 768, so the text seems really small and uncomfortable to read. I did change the DPI setting from 96 to 120, and that is definitely helping. I may need to adjust the font size from normal to large.

I think the real problem is not so much the size as the change in ratio with the native resolution. The height to width ratio is so different that everything looks just plain wrong.
