Yes, unfortunately I can't do 1:1 on it, so it's either put up with a somewhat blurry image if you are running at below native resolution or run it at native one (as I do). I can still just do the actual size in media player, it accomplishes the same effect.

By the way, I just wanted to caution everyone who is thinking of buying an LCD display and/or video card in the near future. If you want to eventually be able to watch HD-DVD or Blue-Ray discs, make sure that both support HDCP protection. The content of commercial discs will not play otherwise. I'll probably have to get a different monitor once the format war is over and these drives fall down in price (well, unless someone finds a way to decrypt these discs ).
