    Anyone here into console emulation? i.e ZSNES, Mame, Neomame, Kgen, etc? if so.. i was wondering how they look in full screen mode on a widescreen notebook.. if there's stretch or black bars to even it.

    I use a bunch of emulators. Most look good, they just stretch to fill the screen. Some of course look better than others, but for the most part they all look fine on a widescreen once you have them configured right.

    By the way, you left out the best one- Project 64!! I love the N64 Mario Kart
