People are giving away 15" CRT for free. Imho it's the best option to play BW. Many newer monitors can't display 640*480 properly. Since their maximum resolution is not a multitude of 640*480, they almost always interpolate pixels which makes BW look ugly and is bad for your accuracy.

Downgrading to a 15" just to play BW is an awful price to pay, especially when the running it in a window practically gives the same result.

for anyone with a decent mouse, as in one that is quite sensitive and for people who have quick mouse movements, even the setting to keep the mouse inside the window does not work. my mouse frequently leaves the window as i go to scroll, so i get some movement of the camera, and then my mouse leaves the window.

Are you sure you aren't pressing alt when this happens? I have never ever had trouble with the mouse leaving the window with mouse lock turned on. If you hold alt it is supposed to allow you to move the mouse out of the window.

@OP Because my 24inch widescreen monitor at home is a cheapo TN panel it refuses to display 640x480 in its proper aspect ratio so I have to use windowed mode. I use 2x pixels and mouse lock and have no issues whatsoever. If you are having trouble getting fullscreen to look the way it should I highly recommend windowed mode

I have tried the windowed mode that came with the iCCup Launcher but it's either too small or too big for the laptop monitor.

Try set your desktop resolution to 720x480 or 800x500 and then run windowed mode with x1 pixels. These are widescreen resolutions but the height should closely match 640x480.
