Given the choice between higher-definition and higher-dimension, I'd go with the one that I forgot I had tried before.
cheers, Bill
p.s. I am meta-paraphrasing Mae West's wonderful riposte: "Given the choice between two evils, I'd pick the one I hadn't tried before."

Sorry for the mistake. It was intended that your boss talks to you about the relocation first.

Now, this[^] is a big TV / monitor... 
8 feet wide...I just love the Q&A:
Q: Does the curvature of the tv match my field of vision? I don't want to be able to see my wife or children.
A: Trust me mate, as soon as the missus sees the receipt you won't be seeing her or the kids again...

I'm glad it's on sale. I could really use the $20,000 I save.

I'd have to have a neighbor mount it on his roof to be able to get back far enough to view it.

$99,999.99 was still too much for me. Then I saw the free shipping. That made it worth it.

Lessee,
Eight feet at three hundred yards ... that would make the screen about yeah wide and yeah tall ... yup. Measures up to a Windows 7 organize/layout/details-pane. Oh wait, has Windows 10 successfully disenfranchised 'Uge icons and non-essential dust 'gither'n down there on the killing floor?

We just upgraded from 40 to 65" and I thought THAT was extravagant. The old one was 5+ years old, i'm betting the new one does not last that long!

Just started a new C# class, and pasted in some code: "File" class wasn't known. Not a problem - put the cursor in the word, and a blue line appears at the beginning, so all I need to do is hover the mouse over it, and ....  where's my blue line? It's gawn!
Now it's part of the right click menu, under "Resolve", and only appears if you type the name, not if you paste it in...
When did that change?

The moment you were grabbing your coat. Now I guess its my time!
Before that, it is back in Visual Studio 2015, as a "Light Bulb[^]".

Surprised it took you this long to notice.
Your special OG build randomly adds and removes features from VS.
Oh yeah, they included it in Win10 as well. Randomly making files read-only, messing with monitors, etc.
Seriously though, the only thing I noticed with VS2013 was that they switched the suggestions icon from right to left.
Or maybe that's only in my head.
I've been using ctrl + . for the last few months anyway

When they heard you were comfortable with the old way, they figured it was time for a change.

And I've just noticed that the "Resolve" menu option doesn't appear with undeclared methods - but the blue line does...

I haven't worked with VS2013 in a while but I kinda like the Resolve thing, but you're right it doesn't play well with undeclared methods.
Been working with Atmel Studio for my embedded stuff more lately, when I finally got done with finishing my sons house and moving.

I get the feeling that MS has got too big, and there is no-one with a sufficient overview of any project to say "Let's be consistent here!" for anything. VS shows it, Win10 shows it...look at "pre-Ribbon" software and you felt that it was "together" in a way that the newer stuff just doesn't, unfortunately. (Even if it thankfully doesn't have a ribbon)

There has never been any consistency, each group was an island within the company and each one did things their way instead of working together.
Win10 is an OS done their way and they listened just enough that it could be pushed out the door with the attitude...we'll fix it as we go along...SSDD or in this case SSDOS.

I dunno - you used to get the feeling that one group worked on one project. Now I get the feeling that a dozen different groups work on VS, and the several C++ groups won't talk to the half-dozen C# groups, who try to sabotage the WPF groups, who ...
Yeuch.

I never even heard of VS 2013 until Friday when it turned out that my new boss has it installed and we were unable to install the SSDT-BI templates for VS 2012.

I had heard that MS was going to "try" to adopt some of Resharper's capabilities and features, starting with VS2013, and a lot in 2015. This could be a first attempt?
