You get black bars, but they are straight.

Only if you stretch everything to 16:9.

Then instead of the camera adding 20 pounds it adds 150.

Any... ummm... "special" cruises available for us?

 

[sharkeeper]

Well I don't have any involvement in the recruitings, I mean bookings department.

Just be shore to take good care of those you call your own and keep good company!

BTW, if you're on Ecstasy, please refrain from throwing apples, pears, or lemons at 74 year old female pax!
