Hi,

>From what I understand from the ConTeXt manual, the S3-S6 screen sizes
relate to the physical screen dimensions, more precisely the display area
width and height. However, the only information I find when searching for
the most common screen sizes relates to the screen resolution and/or the
screen diagonal size. Any idea where to find reliable data about the most
common screen (physical) sizes ?
