I do!

That way I can finally run a square pixel screen. I know I can anyway, I just hate how it looks so squashed up. That reminds me, has anyone noticed how 1024x768 on amiga offeres slightly more screen real estate than 1280 1024 on windows? It's weird.

That's what I mean. windows just doesn't use the screen efficently at all.

An exact reproduction would be best methinks. Its a shame we can't mix square and non square modes, for example having most of the screen running at 640x256, apart from the contents of a browser window, which could run at x512. Monitor would probably blow up if you did it wrong though.
