According to the new VESA CVT (Coordinated Video Timing) system for describing display pixel formats, the display on my laptop has magically turned into a 1.47M3. SXGA+ is now officially passé.

Yeah, this is a great improvement!
What’s wrong with “1400×1050″?
Now you have to calculate the number of megapixels and the aspect ratio…
BTW, quoting from the page you refer to:
”
M3 = 4 : 3
M4 = 5 : 4
M9 = 16 : 9
MA = 1900 : 1200 (A is hexadecimal for 10)
”
I don’t get it… that last line, I mean… am I missing something?
