i am actually suprised there hasnt been more of a push into the 16:9 LCD monitors for PC use, im sure they are available but admittedly i have never seen one in action.
cheers :) :)

mrj,

just wait till they actually enforce the hdtv regulation here in the states (in theory everything in stores has to be hdtv by jan 1, 2006) and w/ the integration and combination of laptops, computers, dvd players and tv's, it will all come together (hopefully)

though pretty much any "top of the line" laptop comes in 16:9 (16:10 probably) ratio while smaller and lower end models are still 4:3 and a lot are still 1024x768 (which i couldnt stand, but then again, the last time i ran that res was 99, and wow i hate it when i use it on most clients machines (especially when i look @ a webpage and i have to scroll to read the front "page"))

way to make me feel good about the laptop i just bought lol (refurb HP Pavilion). 1024x768 is enough for me to use when away from the desktop, it's *just* bareable to me. But i couldn't run it full time, 1600x1200 on both desktop systems at home.
