OMFG, have you ever had to surf AT, not to mention use a computer and surf any website in 16 colors?!?!? I've been doing that for 2 days. I'm back to 32 bit color, and boy am I glad. Be greatful for what you have people, you don't appreciate it until you've got nothing more than 16 colors 😉

When I was a kid we had to squint to even see 4 colors. That's the way is was and we LIKED it!

I remember flight sims that had the screen divided in half, blue/brown for sky/earth. When you flew over water there were 2 shades of blue.

I thought at the time that it was kick-ass.

ATOT in 16 colors I can handle, surfing pr0n is another story. Everything runs together at 16 colors, its a mess.

i changed my parents res to 1024x768 and used large icons and fonts...

i thought they didnt notice, until about 3 weeks later my mother asked out of the blue if someone had changed it =(

i told her it was my brother and that id change it back because he must have forgotten

all the computers at our school are 800*600...last year they were 640*480, and I barely talked them into getting it higher...i was aiming at more along the lines of 1024*768 though 🙁

and our school refuses to do anything over 256 colors
 
I can never understand why people use the computer with the LOWEST or close to the lowest resolution!!? Its always the higher the better, I find 1600X1200 perfectly fine. It seems like people have bad eye site or something, I go to my friends house and he plays CS in 1600X1200 but the desktop is 1024X768 so.... I have seen video in 16 colors and it looks very strange. Hey BTW on the topic of graphics, anyone know of a way to use windows in JUST B/W? If you have a really crappy video card and Win 95 yes but Otherwise I dont know. Care to tell me how?
 
At work the Samsung 17" have native 1024*768 resolutions, but to support existing programs everybody's workstation is set at a horrid 800*600. Blurry as hell, yet nobody seems to notice or mind except myself. And IT would not allow us to change it ourselves, even if we were to change it back at the end of the day.
