Mine (VESA 3, Intel Ironlake) doesn't show 640x400, only 640x480. For laughs, I did play in that resolution today. It seemed "mostly" fine (certainly fast enough for me, although I do still probably prefer 320x240). However ....

The Egypt-area pyramid with two obelisks with the switch on the wall (with mummy archer and blue flying imp) seemed to glitch out. So I couldn't actually activate the switch itself, seemingly passed right through it, even after reloading the save state a few times. Of course, switching res to 320x240 allowed it to work fine. Just FYI, and my save slot (Assassin, /data/s1/) is here (if you're bored enough to try reproducing this).
