Someone I know worked on the multimedia system for BC place stadium. In
part of the testing, or maybe just for the fun of it, they played a fighter
combat game on the system. It apparently looked very good on the 40 foot
diagonal screen, and the stadium sound system checked out quite well too.
The relevance is, the pixels in that screen were probably in the range of a
half inch high. A browser viewport set at 200 x 200 would be somewhere in
the 8' x 8' range.

Unfortunately, we news group groupies do seem to be holier than thou...
What I know is the Goddess' gift, and everyone else out there can either
tow my line, or they are out to lunch. (I hope you can detect my sarcasm
here.)
Some might say take it with a grain of salt, take it with a 25lb bag of the
stuff.
