BOB!

I never expected such a  basic error from you..

That 72 ppi figure may have been acceptable as THE rule 10 years ago  on 
Macs..  But, even Macs have 96 ppi monitors now... and PC monitors range 
wildly depending upon resolution and screen size..

I would suggest anyone who wises to KNOW their ACTUAL resolution 
download a copy of  the GIMP for windows and run the calibration utility..

On my 26" screen, at 1280 x1024, my actual resolution is 89.899 x 82.89 
ppi... 

I'm just wondering WHEN Photoshop will include a utility/preference that 
allows me to set PhotoShop to my ACTUAL screen resolution.. It would be 
nice for my rulers to meet reality..
