Just played the demo, Widescreen is in! Oh, and it's awesome. edit: Just to clarify it allows true widescreen resolutions, and has a stretchy option! <3 |

fantastic news, now, will it run on an acer aspire 1360? Sempron 2800+ 512MB of DDR Via Unichrome II graphics with 64MB shared memory? 15.4 UXGA screen. |

Shared memory and WUXGA? I doubt it'll run at a reasonable speed, although it might if you can turn a lot of the options down/off... What sort of shared graphics chip is it? |

Whoops. I need to read more carefully. :oops: Oh, 1280x800 is WXGA (wide XGA) UXGA is 1600x1200... which is why I was asking, 'cause 1600x1200 on an integrated graphics solution would be painful in the extreme... ;) |

my fault, getting my terminology mixed up, it is indeed WXGA, and it should ship tomorrow. :D |

That's OK. :D Congrats on the purchase... I hope you like it! Can you give us a review? I'd be interested, and I'm sure others would too. Post it in Hardware if you do. Initial impressions and things like that. :) |
