I don't know what "real" windowing systems you have used, but under my
windowing system I have three main windows which are non-overlapped and
are of the following sizes: 96 cols/72 rows, 80/32, and 80/44. Each of these
are using a 9x15 font which is very readable on my 19" monitor.
I even have room left over for my mailer flag, system load average, clock, and
icons of other windows that I use less frequently.
