I'm sorry Felix if I have caused a problem.
I have Graves Disease and Chronic Fatigue both conditions have a symptom called Brain Fog. Sometimes things don't come easily without explanation so I'd ask you to bear with me.I have spent two days doing what used to take an hour.

Now to reply to your general gist.
A user should never have to adjust their screen. They buy a screen install it and use it. PCs and peripheral devices are now PnP and normal users should never be required to adjust pixels, resolutions, or anything else for that matter. In essence these things should "just work".
For everyone else to be required to adjust their resolutions so an inch on your screenshot is an inch on their screen creates work for everyone else that they would never be required to do in any other, normal usage, circumstance.
It is beyond reason that we would expect anyone, especially "Windows refugees", to do such things. We want to attract people to TDE not make them adjust their screens so they can use a website for TDE.

Sorry but mine offers a "physical context" as well. They are screenshots of a 29" ultra wide screen with the TDE website on it. I presented 3 shots from this screen and another 3 from my laptop.
Scaling am image to its physical size? It's a picture of what was on my screen in its physical size. That is why websites are not made to measure but rather are made to adjust to the users individual setup.
It does not matter one iota how many lines of text there are what matters is the screen real estate is used wisely. Having two thirds of a screen with white space isn't very good usage of screen real estate.

Lisi what you see in my pictures, the large screen would not be what  appears on your screen (unless you have a 29" screen)
If you have a small screen, like my laptop, then there would be very little, if any, noticeable difference.
Take a look at the shots from my laptop and  see that there is absolutely no difference in width for any of it and only 1 text line deference in height in the menu but not in the rest of the content.
The adjustments make it easier to use on a bigger screen and make no real difference to smaller screens. That is the beauty of css and using percentages.

Cheers.
Michael.

These are so much more wearing on the eye (and therefore less legible) than
the original.

Sorry, everybody.  Drums, the beating of, etc. spring to mind.  I just _love_
E. Liddell's design.  I wish that he designed all the websites I have to use
frequently!
