Joel, it comes up about 7x9.5 on my 24-inch monitor and is beautiful.

I like 4/3 because I like portrait orientation.  I like grips because it
usually makes portrait mode easier.  Portraits in 4/3 give me a bit of the
feel of an old view camera.  As I look at my web galleries, I find a fair
number of web images in portrait orientation.  If you want people to look
at your stuff, this is probably not the best choice.  On my laptop I have
to F11 to fullscreen viewing to avoid having to scroll my portrait images
in some cases (not on Zone-10).  It's better to study images at fullscreen
in that way, but I don't always do it.  Even fullscreen you can't fill the
screen the way you can with a horizontal image.  And if you zoom in to fill
the screen side to side, you definitely have to scroll.  When I print an
image these days, which is rare, it's usually in portrait orientation
because its the nicest way to see the image big.

Anyway, enough of that.  I'm defeating my purpose!  I was out walking last
night with an old Olympus 830 and caught the sunset along the Iowa River:
