Is there any way to do a high resolution screen capture?
All of the Windows-XP built-in Print Screen stuff is crappy compared
to what I'm seeing directly (1280 x 1024).

You sure? The printscreen key should capture exactly the pixels on
your monitor(s) to the clipboard. It will look like crap if you print
a 100 DPI screen to a 600 DPI printer, or if it gets scaled on the
same monitor to other than an integral multiple of 100% (in Photoshop,
use "actual pixels"). On my CAD machine it produces an image 5120 x
1600 pixels, which is just adequate for a 7" x 5" at 300DPI (17" x 5",
actually).
I tried printing to PDF at 600dpi... looks crappy unless you zoom in.
Didn't think to use Photoshop. "N" has that, I'll try it.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
