Me, it's always windowed mode, as wide as the screen, but slightly smaller on the vertical.
Still, I see a lot of people talking about "alt-tabbing out of EVE" and such... so I wondered, how many of you still (for some unknown, obscure reason) play EVE in fullscreen instead of the much more practical windowed mode ?
And if you do play fullscreen... why ?

I play with EVE Psuedo-Fullscreened on one screen, does that count?
Nah, doesn't really count 
You don't have to alt-tab out of EVE, you just move the mouse out.

You won't find out "how many of us" here
It's called sampling. I suspect the sample will be slightly biased towards non-fullscreen mode users.

What's "much more practical" about windowed mode? You'll find part of your answers there.
Hmmz... wheere do I start ?
You can use whatever IM/voice program you prefer OOG while still watching what goes on ingame.
Easiest to run multiple clients on the same machine.
Nothing that might pop you out of fullscreen mode (minimize EVE in the process) can disturb you.
And so on and so forth.

Fullscreen, only takes a quick control + alt + left/right to spin the cube.
*headscratch* I have no idea what you're talking about...

Always play window mode. WTB maximised window mode without borders tho.
If you select a windowed resolution exactly as wide as the desktop, you can manually position it so that you have no left nor roight borders, and only a 2 or 3 pixels border on the upper side.
That's how I do it, anyway. Like this : Linkage.

oh god. another AKITA T "why im right" mega thread.
Whats next - WHY IM RIGHT TO HAVE MY SPEAKERS VOLUME SET TO 6, AND WHY YOU ARE WRONG TO HAVE IT SET TO ANYTHING ELSE
exactly what I was thinking.
Akita T= most arrogant poster in eve.
Pfft, everybody knows EVE has no sound, doesn't matter what level you set your speakers to 
Oh, and the only reason I'm arrogant is because I'm usually right (or pretty damn close)
Sure, I'm completely and utterly wrong every now and then, but unless proven otherwise first...
And by the way... thank you, it's nice to know somebody cares enough to hate me

Ah, Andromeda... such potential. That show went into the toilet so fast when the lead writer left.
HEAVILY underappreciated show. The mere idea of the Nietzscheans, for instance. Or the slipstream/slipdrive concept. And a lot more of the small things here and there. All of them, huge potential, good cast/characters too (half of them anyway).
Too bad it was set to such a child-like audience, especially later in the show.

Your meds. Take'em. Take'em fast, before you explode or something.
