No.
It goes fully up and down.
It does not look cinema style.
It is more up and down.
Infact the buttons in Netscape 6/7 and Mozilla look oval shaped going up and down.

If you have a widescreen (16:9) res on a non-Widescreen (4:3) monitor, you'll see
a cinema style letterbox effect, with a wide picture in between thick black bars.
Do not dispute this, since I know more about aspect ratios than you do.
If you're saying that your 1360x768 resolution fills your standard 4:3 monitor then . . .
You do have 16:9 display equipment capable of display 16:9 pictures that fill the screen.
or
You're vertically stretching your display to fill the screen, result in a tall squashed picture.
or
You're telling lies.
If you're telling lies about this issue, and you try to dispute my reasoning, you will be reprimanded.

My laptop monitor (14.1-inch) runs at 1024x768, and my TV (which I use as a second computer monitor, 19-inch) runs at 800x600. That puts my total resolution at 1824x768, if I'm not mistaken.
And my Server 2003 laptop runs 1024x768 (13.3-inch).
The AST laptop runs 800x600 natively (12.1-inch)

I keep my resolution 800 X 600 and most of the hits to my site are 800 X 600 and 1024 X 768. I do like how tiny things look in the higher resolutions.

Hi
My main PC has a 19" LCD screen running at 1280x1024- I thought that was pretty much standard for that size display
My Thinkpad has a 14" Display at 1152x864
and my windows nt machine runs at 800x600
(I used to have a Windows 3.11 machine at 640x480 but I guess thats almost obsolete nowdays.
