Now, I switch to 1600*1200, and things looks so big  

yeah  but is your Video Card able to handle that resolution?
 
Even my gloria   has a hard time at that res.  It works well enough  but when I switch to 1200x 762 (I think) my computer is like on anphetamine  
wheeeee!

So tell me, how the heck were you able to stand playing FS2 at 640x480, hmmm?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I have Windows set to 1152x864 resolution with most games running on 1024x768. I once tried switching Windows to my monitor's 1920x1440 maximum; I couldn't read a thing.   IMHO anything beyond 1280x1024 makes standard text too small to read, but then again, my vision really sucks.
