Why did they....

[CaptainJackSwallows]

decide to add an 80 and a 50 to make 1680x1050 ? 1600x1000 seems so much easier

i am sure you just forgot to complete the topic summary ... since you are offline, i did it for you as a courtesy for everyone.

Have to maintain those ratio's, like 4:3 and 16:10. That's why, I reckon.

I'd guess because 1600x1000 would have less vertical resolution than the common 1280x1024 size.

Why do people not put the relavant topic in the title?

Perhaps they don't feel anyone will look unless they 'trick' them.
in any case, i 'fixed' the summary as i agree with you.
