I Miss Pixels

So I did a little experiment to see what's been bugging me about Windows and changed my resolution back to 1024 x 768 and sure enough, there were a bunch of pixelated icons. I'm still thinking there's a camera-like setting that has been added to Windows computing. A simplification perhaps, that deals with the increased number of pixels. I refuse to use classic shell, and my monitor doesn't support 1024 x 768, so I move on.
