Does this really matter? I can't think of any programs I use on a daily basis that don't pull my desktop resolution.
x86/x64 based PCs can display to multiple monitors at their optimum or differing resolutions. It's a bit of a moot point in 2012 with full Hi Def digital displays. The operating system supports what is needed. Screens were cool in the 80's but they were really a feature gimic rather than anything productive or useful. IMO.
One of my hates however is the term "PC". As per the thread title. It used to be IBM PC and then got shortened to PC. Every computer I owned in the 80s and early 90s had the word Personal Computer written on it. None of them being IBM related. I guess PC was a term coined by Mac zealots who figured everything non-Mac was PC. Does that make Macs Impersonal PCs?
Arrh they have a lot to be blamed for.
@Karlos don't forget the interupts even though they're APIC? now the origins are the same.
