If a 640x400 canavas at 100% is taking almost the whole screen, you have 
a very ancient screen (800x600, or even 1024x768...)(is that a CRT?). If 
you have a moderately recent LCD display (10 years or less) make sure 
you are working at its native resolution (which is usually the maximum 
resolution you'll be able to choose in the list).
