    16:9 sucks for 99% of the internet and most documents, but is great for movies.

    That said, I don't watch movies at my computer. That is what my PS3, surround sound and 65" Mitsu Diamond DLP are for.

    The move to 16:9 on all displays is purely a financial one.

    There we go I watch maybe one movie per month, that just doesn't justify the rest of the time with discomfort.

    They can stamp out more displays for less money if they are all the same or similar dimensions

    16:9 also uses less materials.

    it uses less since its smaller, if people cared about screen aria and not diagonal size there would be an uproar

    right, and that cost savingness (if you can even call it that, it is more like a marketing thing, making panels smaller doesnt save any money, they just call it the same size when it is actually smaller) is the ONLY reason people are selling and buying 16:9. come on.

    I don't like 16:9 even in laptops.

    Manufacturers aim to produce 16:9 because of lower cost.

    People generaly buy crap, not only in this segment.

    "are 1920x1200 lcds dead? no, 26" 1920x1200 is perfect for me. I will maybe switch to LED in future.
