Clearly I didn't make myself clear. Marathon runs at 640x480, whether
or not you're using "high" or "low" resolution, whether or not you're
using "full screen" or "PDA + tiny screen" mode. 640x480. Nothing
more; nothing less. Try setting your monitor to 1024x768 and using
"full screen" mode in Marathon. Does it take up the whole screen? No.
