Just for the fun of it, I have a 1600x1200, or 1600:1200 or 16:9 or 4:3 screen on my Thinkpad t42p and don't think I could live without it. Others look at my screen and say that they can't see the letters. I sit (with my old man's trifocals) close enough that the small text is clear and think the added information of a 250x100 text window is worth sitting closer.
