  Not for much longer, but that's not a problem: I
have a 1920x1200 panel
 and it is a simple matter to tell the monitor to preserve aspect ratio.
 I have taken 800x600 input and displayed it perfectly 4:3 centered in a
 1600x1200 area. Identical display to a 1600x1200 monitor. 
I meant to make clear that my 800x600 input was doubled nicely to
1600x1200, not a tiny window centered, nor fullscreen-stretched to the
full 16:9 1920x1200.  In other words, it does the correct thing.
