As said, it will work nicely with an external monitor at higher
resolutions.

I expected to do a lot of squinting, but the default font sizes
were, of course, pre-adjusted to suit its 800x480 screen.  The
only real problem is that some windows, especially dialog boxes
are too big for that screen.  So I've been using Alt-drag a lot,
to make the `Okay' / `Cancel' buttons visible.

Also helps to go into Control Center > General Settings > Key
Assignments > Keyboard Shortcuts and map a shortcut for `Make
Window Full-Screen'.  Gets the title-bar and the panel out of
your way.  I use Alt-F11, because the straight F11 some
applications recognize [Firefox, for example] has a different
effect, so you'd want to be able to use that too.



Cheers,

Patrick.
