its not the large screen... its the high resolution... possibly he's running
his DOS windows at something other than 25x80... i knw that i run mine at
43x80 and 50x80 and don't have any problems... possibly, he runs at 120 or 132
width? dunno without more information...

the OS and video card/drivers may also come into play...
