[casual_games] Impact of Netbooks on PC Development?

[Hal Barwood]

I worry about the Casual Games biz escalating into the Hard Core biz 
with ever-increasing download size and system requirements.

I also wonder about the common practice of full-screen defaults:  I've 
seen a few games that get stretched horizontally because the engine 
doesn't recognize widescreen displays -- for example, 1280x800 (most 
current laptops) and 1024x600 (the new netbooks).

Providing a windowed option for customers seems like good etiquette, if 
nothing else.
