But if you maximize to fit the image to the entire screen, won't the whole
thing be really chunky [for lack of a better word]? In other words, would
the resolution be the same only bigger or is the software/hardware supposed
to fill in the blanks to make a smooth image?

Oh, by the way, regarding wanting it as big as possible, I would agree with
you in most cases. It just depends on whether or not you're at work! ;-p

Sincerely and with thanks,
