Virtual monitor was used time ago, when no HD monitor did exist to 
create a screen larger than the real one. the display was a subset of 
this virtual screen and could be moved through it. This wasn't very 
practical.

however I use it to get a full HD display 1080 on a only 720 capable 
monitor, with a very fine result, on *intel* hardware/driver. I couldn't 
make it work on AMD hardware/driver

the result is surprisingly good, In use it continuously (including right 
now)
