I am looking to purchase an LCD monitor, one with a native resolution of
1400x1050. I will be using this at its native resolution in 2D apps
(Windows desktop).

Playing some games, however, I will be using it at 800x600 resolution.

My question is, how will the game (at 800x600) look on a 1400x1050 monitor?

My other question is, would I get a better (800x600) image on an LCD with a
native resolution of 1600x1200 than on one with 1400x1050?

Thanks for any insight into this,

Jon
