Maybe it's just me, but I don't find the screen small.

Lots of people I know have that argument: The screen is too small.  Of course,
these are the same people who are using Panasonic Senior Partners and don't
have any complaint about the screen size.

I have an IBM-XT with a CGA monitor in my office for a few weeks, but I have
to admit that my nine-point Monaco is just as readable as it's nice big
screen.  Besides, even if I put the PC on the floor and just have the CRT,
keyboard, and mouse on the desk, it seems to take up more room than my
Macintosh.

Now, I wouldn't mind a bigger monitor, so that I could put more windows on the
screen simultaneously (a big plus for things like MultiFinder) but I don't
find the Mac monitor to be that small.  Is it just me?
