The £125 is just under £4000 "in todays money".

£950 is almost £30,000

I'd enlarged - but at that point I needed to do a lot of scrolling as the screen is so small.  I'm on a chromebook which is brilliant for 99% "everyday" use, but that's an example of the 1%.  In the end I sized it to go up and down each column.
