When you run games in fullscreen on a TiBook, do they take advantage of the extra screen real estate, or do they display with "vertical letterboxing"? I'm considering getting a new PowerBook when Apple realeases new ones, and that is a mighty important factor to me :-P

It depends on the game. For example Warcraft 3 supports native widescreen resolutions, but UT does not natively support it. Though, I think you can change it via the .ini file in the case of UT.
