I would hope that a 16:9 LCD sent a 4:3 signal would just put black bars on the sides, but I have no evidence, personal or anecdotal, that that's the case.


Hm. So if that were true, then Half Life 2 (sorry to be stuck on it, but Loren and gang got me totally excited about it, and now it's my holy grail) should look fine at 1600x1200 with black bars.

Have you guys seen http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/ ?

Half Life 2 isn't really discussed or featured, so I'm guessing it can't do 16x9.
