Any tips how to tweak Windows settings for non-retina applications?
At work I have some Windows apps that I occasionally use from a Mac at home via VPN. They have worked OK although somewhat sluggishly on my late-2009 4GB Mac mini via Win 7/VMware.
We recently got mid-2014 MBP so I tried Win 8 via Boot Camp but the initial experience was very bad:
Win 8 Remote desktop client app's text & icons are way too tiny.
One PACS client's image area is OK but the user interface elements are way too big so they fill almost the whole screen leaving only a small area for the images.
The other PACS client severely crops its display area. It behaves slightly better if I adjust its window smaller but it is still unusable.
I tried to tweak the "Make Text and other (Desktop?) items larger or smaller" and tweaked the resolution down to 1980x1080 but the results were not satisfactory.
Any suggestions? Is Win 10 any better with Boot Camp?
That seems far-fetched. I'm inclined to believe her doctors more than some lunatic explanation found by Googling around. Was the gallbladder removed? Were the dizzy spells cured then?? Was Lee Harvey Oswald guilty after all?
That's a sad story. But to a radiologist "a speck of dust" sounds like "might be just noise, need more input to label this as malignant". There is a fine line between too much false positives and too much false negatives. I guess that was a barium study which is not very sensitive at all compared to gastroscopy.
The world is full of anecdotes from relatives complaining how doctors fail to 100% diagnose everything that in hindsight is clear.

This has been going on far too long. Stop the Mars impacts! Join the pro-Mars movement!! No more craters!!!
It can be a work of art: "Norwegian pilot flying a passenger plane NAX3194 from Copenhagen to Stockholm flew a penis figure to the sky while waiting landing permission to Arlanda". http://iwriteinmargins.blogspot.fi/2012/12/norwegian-airplane-pilot-drew-penis-to.html

Samsung is at again. They copied and just reversed the 4S from iPhone 4S hoping that no one would notice.
