I love my 16:9 widescreen lappy (they come in 16:10 as well)
its excellent for documents, browsing, irc, not games that much, but most games are Widescreen friendly now as well, also most tv shows are
you get bigger keys, more palm resting space, but the downside is that they are wider and take up more space in that way.

Yeh thats what I though...freerider said:
Oh and yes I hate them too. We have one which we use on holiday etc...
Its so annoying finding a correct resolution wallpaper for it! Besides, I hate widescreens in general. Nothing beats the box.

^^@SL65 Gonna have a hard time... Nothing is produced in 4:3 anymore.
16:9 all the way, most games offers some resolutions for that as well...
And for movies and series its gonna be perfect. Especially sine more and more 1920x1080/1200 display come out
I wanna have a 16:9 Digicam as well...

the 4:3 is almost and pretty much dead, give it a few yrs, it will be all widescreen, already if you watch tv in 4:3 you are losing picture, so best get a widescreen now

widescreen wins, you squares
In TV I agree that you lose with 4:3, but not with laptops.
For me to have the same amount of info I now have in my 4:3 14" 1400x1050 laptop, I'll need a heavier 15" 1680x1050. The right part of the screen is usually empty, so why do I need to make it bigger? The only thing it will force me to do, is to put my launch bar on the side, so I can have a balanced viewing area.
I want a laptop computer, not a laptop movie viewer...
