I am somewhat puzzled by the industry-wide move towards widescreen computer monitors. On my 4:3 screen I almost always run out of the vertical space first before needing more horizontal room.
A wide screen is better suited for watching movies but computer monitors are rarely used for that. Is it just a marketing compaign (e.g. like AWD in vehicles)?
Which monitor would you prefer?
I am in the market for a 20"+ LCD monitor (1600x1200) now and find that there are many good deal on widescreens and almost none on 4:3s.
