	Wrong way to go. Tsk ! tsk !

	Go to control Panel. ( I just lit up one XPP machine just for you ). Click on
Display. there are two options for you here. You can click on Appearance and at
the left bottom, you can enlarge the font. Gross way of doing this. Better go
to Settings, Advance, you will see where you can change the DPI setting of your
screen ( -> without changing the resolution <- ) Normally defaulted to 96DPIs,
offer of 120 DPIs but look again, you are offered a Custom Setting. I use 111
and I can stand 5' away from my LCD monitor and read all easily. Give it a go.

	An LCD should always be used at its designed resolution and this is why the OS
now offers you all this adaptive way to suit yourself.

 EV> I hope maybe the Accessibility Settings will give me some relief.  ;-)

	Not the way to do this, it is a shortcut for RTC aficionados.
