    I've played Monopoly Tycoon on a netbook at 800 x 600 before; don't know if that's really what you're after though.

    Yeah the games work but you cant use it as the screen is too small.

    That's what I hate about netbooks. 1024x600 resolution just sucks. Lots of older or low spec games require minimum 1024x768. Why don't they just use 1024x768 resolution, or better yet 1366x768. Unfortunately you have to go with an 11.6" or 12.1" to get that resolution. I don't see any reason why they couldn't go with that on a 10".
