If you look at 
http://www.cisco.com/image/jpeg/en/us/guest/products/ps379/c1122/cdccont_0900aecd800add13.jpg 
you'll see the screens on the 7905/7912 (bottom left two) are 
substantially smaller than the 7940/7960 (top right three). So for a 
similar pixel size (if that is the case) the resolution is higher. By 
the way, the 7940/60 at least use a proportional font. It is my 
understanding that the 7905/12 have a smaller screen as they cannot 
display XML services and do not have line appearances.
