   <section class="page">
<p>I remember visiting a college in 1985 (readers, I’m that ancient), and seeing the height of glamor and magic: a portrait-orientation CRT screen that was part of a typesetting system. Because type was composed in “galleys,” long runs of relatively narrow columns, someone entering copy could more easily see a long run of text this way.</p><p>Computers have come a long way, but this orientation remains the same. You may wind up with a lot of tasks that are better suited for a long vertical, like long runs of text that you’re writing, lots of lengthy menus or a huge array of palettes, or material that stacks well in wide rectangles from top to bottom for reference, like resized windows.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3563325/need-a-portrait-screen-on-your-mac-rotate-your-display.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
