Higher resolutions will of course make text appear smaller on screen.

Not necessarily for IE.

Owing to a bug in how IE applies the Windows desktop default font size
adjustment twice, a high-resolution Windows display may display web
pages at an excessively _large_ size. If the user has obtained a high
resolution display and a monitor of average size it's relatively
common (more common than them setting browser user style***) for
them to set the Windows desktop display font size to be larger than
standard. IE then applies this settings again itself (Windows has
already applied it), resulting in browser "1em" sizes being
relatively larger than when a lower resolution display has been
configured to give equally sized desktop fonts.
