Preferred display settings on 13" Macbook

sportdan31 · Apr 16, 2007, 01:48 PM

I'm constantly having to use the arrow keys to read and see the full page of what I'm viewing on the internet. I think I have my display settings set at 1152 x 758 or somewhere close to that. With that setting, the print is just right, but if I go to a higher display setting, then the print is way too small.

Does anyone have any suggestions or advice? I'd be curious to know what others are using for their display setting.

Thanks.

You can use 1280 x 800 (which is the best setting as the native, really); just up the font size in your browser.

Two options. No offence but get your eyes checked. Please don't be offended. Otherwise wait for Leopard and its resolution independence.
