Going forward, I predict we'll see a decline in market share of both Windows
and Apple in this area, in favor of open-source *nix OSs (linux,etc.).
There's absolutely no advantage to a proprietary OS in a turnkey system.

I've been looking around our local imax theaters to go see Dark Knight since
this is one of the few movies actually shot and not converted for imax. I

I've been hearing conflicting stories about the theaters here locally,

Possibility of either.
You have to see what their video resolution is set for. I cannot
remember what that pone is, but it is a non standard size. It is
narrow and wide. I will check my wife's and let you know.
Also check and see that they have not enabled some sort of
accessibility
It should be a setting. Right click on an empty part of the desktop,
select properties, settings, and then adjust the screen resolution to
match the native display size of the laptop.

That's exactly what the problem was. Had them change the resolution from

Only a few scenes were 'shot' (rendered?) in Imax. Reviews indicate on an

much larger. Cityscapes and such.
