Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:51 joebt]:
 > gk, not sure if this has landed in TBB 6.08 final (Win), but it's not
 working (100%) for me in Vista x64 hm. prem.  There are so many bugs on
 "screen size not being reported / rounded correctly," I have no idea where
 to post my latest findings. Sorry if this isn't the best place (let me
 know & I'll move it).

 This fix has not landed in the 6.0.x series but I would like to know
 whether it solves your problem. Could you try the current alpha and report
 back? See: https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en
 #downloads-alpha. I was about to reply to your mail to tor-talk. If you
 could report back in that thread this would be helpful. We'll see we might
 move the discussion to a different bug in this bug tracker then in case
 your problem is still not fixed in the alphas.

 > As of TBB 6.08, if Windows ** is 96 DPI,** then test sites report 1000 w
 x 900 h, on a 4:3 widescreen, 1920 x 1080 monitor.  If the goal is a
 (nearly, not quite) square TBB, it's sort of happening (at 96 DPI).

 The goal is to have the width a multiple of 200 and the height a multiple
 of 100.
