Similar major cutoffs occur at other resolutions.
not having a monitor from the stoneages fixes all those issues
Being able to read fixes issues with not seeing how I included other monitors.

At 1600x1200 resolution, a full 8.5x11 document fits (Word, Acrobat, etc) only if auto-hide is on (Note how I had to include standard 1" margins on my list above). At 1600x1200, any margin will work and you can see the full screen. At 1600x1200, most imaging software needs to scroll for your 1280x1024 porn unless you have auto-hide on. I could go on and on.

Above 1600x1280, I don't know of major cutoffs since I personally don't go above that resolution. And most people hate 1600x1280, so I used 1600x1200 in my discussion above.

scroll for porn?
 
I autohide on my desktops, but not on my laptop.

On the desktop I like having the extra screen real estate.
