16x10 widescreens

FTW /o/
Doom: yeah, just like on the mighty MICROVISION!
texel: I'm not sure a circle has diagonals. It certainly doesn't have _a_ diagonal. Although there is something to be said about circular screens, it turns out that if you want a high surface area to diameter ratio, you want a sphere. And behold!
.. coincidentally showing a killer starfield. Though can you imagine edge clipping on that? But whatever, you'd still want a square anyway because squares are neat. Cubes are made out of squares, and cubes are awesome. End of discussion.

Doom: the discussion is not over. Squares are made of triangles, therefore the ultimate screen be a triangle.
p01: No, because triangles are made of squares and circles:
this, btw, is classic:
its great, but its pretty obvious that the two triangles have different gradients, and both trianges have the same area, even with that "missing" square.
Well, of course the two "large triangles" aren't triangles at all. Real triangles are made of squares and circles.
@Raynoa: I prefer watching things at the correct aspect ratio, so fullscreen doesn't do it usually.
@xernobyl: Yeah, their non-square modes are a bit odd. They do work, though, which is nice because Windows can't seem to remember that I set my system to Display Adapter Scaling, not stretch to screen width.
