What screen resolutions are you using on your pc’s / laptop’s …?

I need your assistance please.  At the moment all Mercury Systems screen forms are designed to fit a screen resolution of 1024x768 pixels.  However resolutions have been getting higher over the last few years, and if customers are generally using these higher resolutions, I can modify certain forms (e.g. client details, job details, stock record) so that they can display more information by making them physically bigger.

Therefore, please would you be able to spend a few minutes to compile a list of the screen resolutions from all pc’s / laptop’s that are used for running Mercury Systems?

Alongside the resolution, can you note the username, and whether the machine is a pc or a laptop.  E.g.:-   “FRED BLOGGS, LAPTOP, 1400x900“

How to do this:-
On Windows XP, right-click the desktop surface and click ‘Properties’, click the ‘Settings’ tab, and note the current resolution.
On Windows Vista, right-click the desktop surface and click ‘Personalize’, select ‘Display Settings’ from the list, and note the current resolution.
On Windows 7, right-click the desktop surface and click ‘Screen Resolution’, and note the current resolution.

I would be grateful if you could email me the results in the next week or so.
