    Hi All:
    Finally got 10.5.5 up and running on my AAO 150 so thought that is was time to perhaps address some of the system limitations, specifically problems encountered with the 600 pixel screen height causing some dialogs ( with buttons along the bottom) to be clipped. Hiding the dock helps in some cases but in others you're stuck.
    Did some digging around and while there are lots of apps that 'magnify the screen I was unable to find anyway to display a higher desktop resolution scaled down to 1024 X 600.
    Just wondering if this has been discussed in other posts (couldn't find any) and if any solutions have been found.
    tnx,
    Bill...

    The only way to look at the whole window is through expose, but obviously it doesn't let you interact with the cut-off content :|

    For dealing with the occassional oversized dialog/preference window, this will sort it.
