Ok, thanks. One other video question for       you Warp experts:  I have managed to get Warp 4 on a box and am       displaying it on a 36" tv. It is set to 480. If I raise it to 800x600, which       will require a reboot to take effect, will it auto revert back so I still have       a display if for some reason it doesn't like the higher resoluti       n?

       That's the theory, and typically the practice. The higher the resolution,       the
       higher the technical quality.
       
       But with higher resolution, software assumptions can break down for
       individual users. The net effect is that user experience can be degraded
       because onscreen objects, text in particular, become smaller, reducing
       effective legibility and inducing eyestrain and backstrain (from leaning
       forward, often unconsciously). Personalization of software to compensate
       (make things bigger) may or may not be adequate.

       Most LCDs support all VESA modes. Among them are usually 75 in addition to
       60, at least for 1024x768 and lower. Whether there's any user benefit to
       using 75 instead of 60 is another matter. I've never been able to detect       any.
