There's such a thing as "good enough". The human eye is quite good. It can see two points that are 0.1 mm apart as individual points. For a huge screen (say in the order of magnitude of 1 m) such a resolution might make sense. Professional printing equipment has (so I read) resolutions of over 2000 dots/inch. You have the 20000 points in just 10 inches. Regards, Dieter
