Close, but not quite.  Console windows are still alive and well in Windows 
8.  However, starting with Vista, some systems didn't support "full-screen 
mode" on console windows.  Starting with Windows 7, I believe they were 
dropped entirely.

Yes, what you need to do is select a font and size that is as large as you 
can fit on the screen if you want/need to have an "almost full-screen window".
