Actually, that turns out not to be the case. If you measure the
width and height of your display and divide your screen resolution
by those numbers, you're more likely to get a number between 108 and
130 ppi. (My laptop is around 112 and my desktop is around 123.)<br>
<br>
The mythical 96 ppi figure originates in the font size setting used
in early Microsoft OSs, but even that wasn't related directly to
display size.<br>
