LCD displays have a native resolution at which they are designed to be operated. Check the user guides that shipped with the laptops to find out the native resolution for each laptop. If an LCD display is operated at anything other than its native resolution, images and text will look fuzzy.
If your users have not been fiddling with the controls, particularly for resolution, DPI (default is 96) or ClearType (on by default), the image on the display is the way it should be. If that appears too small for some, Windows ships with Accessibility tools (in the Start Menu under Accessories) that may help. Personally, I use reading glasses.

Hi some of the newer laptops office has been getting in, the fonts and icons and things in general are so small as to be hard to read. Changing the resolution gives a fuzzy look to everything. We've tried playing around with font and icon size, but have not found a good balance, and still some applications need tweaking individually. And sometime closing the app reset things. Windows XPP..
Does anyone have a good write up of what, where and how to change to make these newer screens usable, especially for slightly older workers who no longer have eagle eyed vision.
Thanks in advance!
