Post Zoom in?
I prefer the game be in lower resolutions (like 640 x 480), it makes it easier to see the troops and in my opinion just looks better up close. However; having it windowed in a tiny box on my screen doesn't help me any and fullscreen mode kills my multiple-monitor set-up. Is there any way to zoom in while in a normal resolution such as 1280x800 or 1440x900? Or is there a way to make a windowed 640x480 take up the entire screen?

Try using the 2x window option?

That usually ends in HORRIBLE DEGAUSSING DEATH or something where my monitors turn black and white and flicker and you can see a faint outline of the game in the background. Sucks.

Happens on three completely different computers for me, using separate B22 installs.

Well that's the only way for the game itself to be expanded any. If you can't get 2x window to work, you're restricted to either A putting up with it or B using an external magnifier program.

Also, it might help to try setting your resolution such that 960 pixels (480x2) actually has room to be displayed. On a widescreen that can be challenging, but it's the only way for it to work.
