    Hi all

    I've recently bought an asus m6boon with wide screen. It's cool to watch movies, and work, but there is one question, is there a way to 'crop' wide screen, that it would show normal 800x600? Lets for example take colin mcrae rally 3 , flat cars don't impress me in wide screen mode :).

    I plan on getting the M6N (ChemBook) 15.4", and was wondering the same thing.

    anyone?

    you can just change your resolution to 800x600 and have black bars on the sides of the screen.
