I once saw in a store MS-Windows running in 1024x768 mode on an ATI-VGA
Wonder.  I played with it and really enjoyed being able to put so many
open windows at once on the screen.  The only problem came about when I
tried Windows Write.  The default font was awfully small (almost invisible).
Using the Enlarge Font command would not help, I would then get only a few
characters per line on the screen (and on the printer).

As I am about to purchase that card, I was wondering if anyone has ever used
Windows in 1024x768 (or higher resolution) and found a solution to the above
problem.  Thanks in advance for your replies.
