I'm running Phoenix in Boot Camp on a 17" MacBook Pro. I wanted to run the sim in full screen but it seemed like the 1680 x 1050 native resolution wasn't available. I emailed Phoenix and they told me to look down in the list of resolutions...all the way down.
:arggg:! There it was all the time. Pixel perfect. I had stopped looking when I hit 1920 x 1080 figuring the list was sorted.
Hope it helps some other poor linear thinker.
Which macbook are you using?

Excellent thank you for the tip. I finally got a slipstreamed XP SP2 CD made and installed and next install is Phoenix!! :)

I'm running XP SP2 quite successfully (Boot Camp inside OS 10.5.1). Only problem related to Phoenix is that if I put XP into STANDBY, when it wakes up, Phoenix runs with very choppy graphics, as if I was using an underpowered machine. Restart and it's back to silky smooth. Dunno.

I have the exact same issue, reboot and phoenix runs AWESOME. I am very happy, Phoenix has the physics of Reflex and CSM with clear screen and graphics of G3, but much faster. I am happy.
