Hmmm, and maybe cheap 720p HD LCD panels. I doubt they're likely to go
smaller than that — it's just so miserable in *any* OS these days. *

How much of a pain would it be to have two layouts, one for 1280×720
16:9 and the other for 1024×768 4:3?

"yeah, below this limit, we've got a lovely text mode".
