"Simple control of display properties!"

"Shouldn't be listed as freeware."
Version: 1st QuickRes Light 1.6b
Summary
This software is great, if you can get the full version. What's listed as "light" is actually just the stripped-down, shareware version of a good program. It even has all the advanced commands in its interface, but if you click them it just tells you to buy the "Pro" version. If only these annoying non-features weren't displayed, it would still be a good program on its own.

"Works just like it's supposed to!"
Version: 1st QuickRes Light 1.6b
Summary
This program has worked great for me for a long time on over 10 different computers I've used in various locations without fail. People say things like "It doesn't do much", but it does everything it claims to do. It works like a charm, and is much faster and easier for testing web page resolutions than creating your own control panel link. I would recommend it to anybody, it only takes a minute to download and less than that to install.
