For 2017 I still have a single screen and 1920x1080 resolution.

Ha!

On my laptop (which I'm using now), the resolution is a measly 1600x900 60hz. My desktop's monitor is 1920x1080 60hz though. But it's not the size that matters... it's how you use it.

It will change in the new year because I plan to build a new computer and get the note 8 if there is nothing better out by then.

Nothing fancy. 1920 x 1080.

Is that your boat? Any chances of getting it afloat again?

Nothing changing for me - a 1920x1200 Cintiq at home and a laptop with a 1920x1080 screen for work and for my time in Germany

And a 32x32 sampling for the FFT madness I'm currently slipping into :-X

1366x768 still.

As to improvements, I think I'll try talking more to people. Maybe write a program.

Sporting 2x1920x1080 on my lappie and HDTV / Widescreen monitor + 1600x1200 on an old fat heavy CRT. XP looks so tiny! Windows 10 does it fine though.

King Piccolo will make it so Then I could just flip it with some sweet, sweet matrix math. In either case, I’ll ride this wagon until the wheels fall off. Thanks to those that keep it running

1920x1080 still. I just got a BIG donation on my Allegro 5 game (Deluxe Pacman 2) of $3200 Canadian, so I am considering grabbing a new monitor, but as an extra to the one I already have. Never had a dual monitor setup but I think it could come in handy for developing.

Who in the bloody Hell donated $3200 to a pacman clone?! Congrats on that anyway!

My resolution remains at 2048x1152@60hz. I want too many things in different directions to get anything new! In any case, that's a decent resolution. I don't know how people survive on 1920x1080 for a computer monitor. I hate that so much. Well, I guess you do what you must.

What I want is to start playing CS:GO competitive, but for that I need a working mic. I'd also like to get the FPS up which means a video card, and I'd love surround sound precision which means a sound card... That's just my computer. Then I need motorcycle gear replacements and upgrades. And a few other high price items on my wish list... None of it I can afford.

Shortly I'll be getting a remote starter for my truck. Thanks to Miranda. That will be nice. :-*

Anyway, my actual resolution is to start waking up at 8 AM again everyday so that I have time before work to shower. I've been getting up at 8:40 or 9 for the past year which barely leaves me enough time to clean the snow off in the winter!

... honestly, I am with you, I don't know why someone would but... this is the SECOND time this same person has done this, he's from Chicago anyhow. The first time was $1250 US a couple years ago, and now $2500 US. The game is free so, they don't have to pay a penny, I only made it for my wife initially.

It certainly does inspire me to work on something else though!

This also makes me love Americans even more.

Bambams, isn't your resolution only barely higher than the resolution you said you can't stand?

2048 - 1920 = 128
1152 - 1080 = 72

I think that's enough of a difference to matter. I know you can definitely notice a significant visual difference.

2048 * 1152 / 1920 / 1080 = 1.137

So you get 14% more pixels!

Remember when resolutions like 640x480 and 800x600 were the norm?

Heck, I still remember when 640x400 was high res!

I ran 640x200 on my Amiga for years.

I NEED to build an old DOS system I think... with DJGPP and Allegro 4 (which I still have on here, along with some of my older Allegro+DOS games). Maybe I'll see what I can code for DOSBox. Could be fun.
