    Has anyone found any good settings as far as maybe adjusting the dpi or anything to get the most out of the 1920x1200 resolution. I enjoy this resolution because of the work area it provides but honestly I wish it was a little bigger. Unfortunatly whenever I lower the resolution the screen becomes blurry and just plain ugly. Right now i currently run 1920x1200 with dpi set on 125%. Are there any other tricks?

    ps-dpi set on 125% causes some applications to have graphics which arent aligned properly

    Stop using the larger fonts and you'll find a much crisper display.
