PowerBook 100 & 170 owners, could you please measure the displayable PIXEL AREA of your LCD from the bottom left to the top right? (Not the visible LCD area, but the displayed pixel area.) To accomplish that, launch Photoshop 1, full the screen with black and make it full screen.

Feel free to tell me that diagonal screen measurement in millimeters if you lack an inch ruler.

I measured my Macintosh Portable 5126 LCD's displayable pixel area to be 9.76" diagonal, so at 640x400, that yields 77dpi. I want to compile the same info for those two PowerBooks, but I don't have the 100 or the 170 to measure myself.

My guess is the PB170's LCD should match my 5126 because both LCDs are from Hosiden. The PB100 might be different though because that panel was made by Sharp.

Thank you!
