Or when you mistakenly bought a laptop with a 15.1" display with 
resolution of 1920x1600. At 96 dpi things are *very* small. :-) But 
changing Windows to 120 dpi cause many applications to be unusable, 
because they hard-coded co-ordinates and sizes to 96 dpi. A very 
frustrating experience! Nvida and ATI display control panels are big 
culprits!!
