Cab owners: How do you like your monitor settings? With a small border or no?

Every year or so I like to adjust my monitor a little bit. In the past I’ve made the picture just a little smaller with black borders on all sides and lately I’ve been thinking about stretching to the very edges, even going over the sides so 100% of the screen is filled.

Furthermore, do you like your image totally flat or rounded to the contour of your monitor?

Just curious how y’all like to set up your stuff.

Right to the edges for me, if you don't change hardware often or at all it's set and forget anyway.

Full as possible. Big sprites. I’m always adjusting them when I switch games.

What cab have you got? Easy enough with the monitor controls under the CPO.

Depends upon the game. For CPS2 384 x 224 I have big borders for widescreen CPS2 goodness.

Definitely edge to edge for me. Why would you want to have borders, anyway? As long as everything is displayed in the correct aspect ratio, the borders are kind of pointless. Maybe that depends on the type of cabinet you have? I remember hearing once that someone didn't like how the edges of the screen reflected off of the bezel. I guess adding borders would remedy that, but that's a whole new level of autism altogether.
