Monitor resolutions have been stagnant for a very long time. The 1024 x 768 monitors of old were about the same DPI as today's 1920 x 1080 monitors, since the screens have gotten larger.

I blame Microsoft. For far too long Windows programs haven't been able to scale gracefully, making odd resolutions painful to work with.
