Normally, you would be in the dark ages with such a small monitor. If you had asked me a week ago, I would have recommended the upgrade. I have a 24" and it is quite enjoyable for widescreen based things such as watching movies or playing games. Plus it is the best way to enjoy 1080p videos.

When did I say half? Wikia recently released an "update" that is extremely controversial and applied it to all Wikias. Basically, it makes the text larger based on the size of your window, so that a full-screen window on a wider screen holds less text. They did this because people can't handle a lot of text or something, it was a way to limit the amount of text you see at one time. I could shrink my browser, setting it to about 80% seems to give me the proper size, but the templates and background weren't scaled so they would appear extremely small. So either way, we have elements that are either very large or very small. We have an admin here who had a 4:3 and a widescreen, he was able to go on the 4:3 without realizing anything was wrong and was appalled at the look as soon as he switched to widescreen. Our previews don't scale for whatever reason, which means I can gauge it that way and still make fixes where needed, but I don't have the enjoyment I once had as I cannot enjoy the pages myself (plus templates I am at a complete loss to know how they would look on a normal screen).

Yeah, I have seen a lot of ports try to use things to make models have lights or whatnot, especially for Deathmatch, which just doesn't feel like Quake anymore. I like the lighting used in GLQuake and darkness appears pretty dark for me, but once again GLQuake has a habit of differing from computer to computer. I just am not a big fan of adding environmental fog and all that stuff as it just doesn't feel like it belongs in interior environments :P

Heh, I am used to very small HUD displays as I set it to the smallest possible values. I like my text to be small and generally out of the way. Similarly, when on the Wikia, I like having my text small so I don't have to continuously scroll.

I don't even count the number of games I play, especially as the mediums are very different and the definition of a "game" can change between people. I could play an idle browser game right now and say that is one more game I played.

My desktop is made entirely opposite yours. It is made to have very little on it beyond the shortcuts I am currently using at a constant rate, I use the start menu to access anything else :P

Yes, my problem is that I live on the classics. Most of what I touch involves stuff before 2004.
