- Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.

I had no idea what most of these referred to.
It turns out the 1280x1024 CRT I've been using since 2004 is known as "SXGA".
Like I'm going to remember that.

Any larger HDTV res to reduce monitor cost (Score:4, Interesting)
I'm voting for "some other resolution entirely", because I'm hoping either QFHD (4K, 3840x2160) or UHD (8K, 7680x4320) will start being mass-manufactured on a large enough scale to drive down costs on high-resolution computer monitors. I'm earning a (-1, redundant) mod here, but it bugs me that ever since 1080p HDTVs (FHD) came out I could get 1920x1080 monitors for dirt cheap, but a second monitor to match my WUXGA (1920x1200) monitor is more expensive due to economies of scale.
Personally, I don't mind too much a 16:9 ratio, I just want more pixels on screen. So my new years' wish is that the marketers are successful at scamming the TV-buying populace into upgrading to 2x or 4x their current resolution so my next monitor upgrade will be both cheap and an upgrade...

Me either. As far as I'm concerned, anything that uses the high density 15pin "D" shaped connector is VGA.

Got a rMBP this summer mainly for the speed. I have a wonderful 27" monitor that sits on my desk entirely unused. I can't believe how much the visual quality matters, and how much I love this extra density in terms of clarity.
