The majority of the time, how do you play N? I always play with N maximized.

Full Screen is an option?

In a window, I switch back and forth between it and other things (IRC, internet, music, etc.) too often to go fullscreen.

If I am using IRC, etc. in a window. If it is the only application active at the moment, in full screen.

I think he means maximized.

Oh, I didn't know you could do that until now. Thanks golfkid.
I think I'll stick with in a window.

I used to go full screen, but I keep it in a window now.

If I could really play it full screen instead of just maximized, I would, but I usually play windowed since you can't.
EDIT: Oh, ha. Didn't read golfkid's post. No idea you could do that, I'll have to try it out.

Pro tip: (for mac users at least)
after entering full screen, right click within flash player and select "show all" for a better view.

Neither. Maybe I need a Flash 9 player since I've only got 8.

When I used to play it, I used Window mode. Haven't touched N for ages though. (It isn't even on this PC and I've had it since July).

Always in a window. So I can watch over IRC without switching windows.
I'm also been used to use everything in a window, like browser and WoW and mostly everything else. It feels awkward to me to go full screen on a 17" screen.

Thanks for golfkid and slappy for pointing out the difference between fullscreen and a maximized window. I had to change the poll to reflect this subtle nuance, so everyone has to revote now.

I play N in a window, but everything else open is maximized. I just find it easier that way.

You need to get nReality. That's the only way to play full screen. You know where it is; can't be bothered to link.

This is completely untrue. Just open up N, then View->Full Screen. Also, I am apparently still running Flash 7.

It took a little while to get used to, but playing fullscreen (show all) on a 900 pixel high monitor is a really lovely thing.

Window. I multitask.
