    This must be a common question, but the Screen Size on the Aspire Ones, seem to be slightly shorter then the normal screens.

    This makes some windows slightly too tall to see the buttons (such as "Okay" "Accept" etc) at the bottom of the screen. I was going to get the Taskbar to start disappearing to open up the lower screen area better.

    Almost all netbooks are 1024x600(MSI WIND, EEE PC, Lenovo S10, Samsung NC1 etc etc)... w/c is a widescreen format. Minimum should be 1024x768, but that would make the screen squarish. Just avoid using older windows APPS. Most newer applications will adjust to the minimum screen height.

    You basically have to use 800x600 for older programs, or stuff gets cut off. Most newer programs will recognize the 1024x600 resolution just fine.
