Okay...now I see what bothers you about the smaller screen/lower resolution.  You know how when you work on a document, you are often seeing the entire page in the window?  My eyes are so bad  that rather than looking at one entire page, I am often only looking at a quarter page.  It is easier to me to create  and proof read  in the close up(zoom in)     then step back (zoom out)  just to make sure the entire page looks good.   I've been doing this for years so it seems normal for me.  I probably have my face a lot closer to the screen than most people, too.
     I feel blessed to be able to have these computers.  I never thought I would own anything as fancy as a Titanium.  And I really glad that I didn't have to sell the iBook to afford the Ti  because I would really miss that 'lil blue computer.
           Thanks for asking about my computers!
