    Hi all,

    i am currently considering switching from my lenovo x220 to the NP940X3G.

    My main concern is the display resolution and usability/ quality under Win 8.1:
    since many apps i use regularly (e.g. evernote) are not supporting scaling properly (yet), i am considering running the display in either 1920x1080 or 1600x900.

    How will the quality be like?
    Does Win 8.1 give you a really clear and sharp display of e.g. text as Max OS is doing for Retina displays?

    Or would text rather be "blurry" as if you typically run windows in a non-native resolution?

    Anyone with experience on 3200 screens here yet?

    Thanks a lot,
    this will really help me take a decision.

    Christian
