OK, I freely admit that I haven't any clue as to the general
population's resolution. I know that I don't see anything lower than
1280x1024 17" around me, and I'm used to student budgets... But I know
that those sometimes aren't as tight as they appear to be, and there are
of course lots of older CRTs still working perfectly fine.

couldn't design the Next Big Thing(TM) unless it involved them taking a
photocopier and someone else's design of The Next Big Thing(TM).
