iTunes 5.0 Special Report: Improvements

A few readers note undocumented enhancements in the iTunes Visualizer module. One reader writes:

"I have a Dell 2005FPW 20" widescreen monitor connected via DVI-D to a Dual 867 MDD G4 and in iTunes 4.9 when I went into fullscreen visualizer it would corrupt the image. I could always escape to get back to iTunes, but in iTunes 5 this is no longer the case. It now works normally in fullscreen mode - admittedly it's a 4:3 image stretched to 16:10 but that's good enough for me."
