Please, less HD 1080 (1920x1080) monitors and more WUXGA (1920x1200) ones for all-around computer use (more area per diagonally-measured screen size). Yes, there are some who argue for 1920x1080 and I have heard all of the arguments. Overall, I still prefer 1920x1200 beyond a doubt.
And, at the 27" range, WQXGA (2560x1600) please!
I mean 1920x1080 dominates from 20"-29", dunno why 2560x1600 can't start at 26" or 27"
p.s.
Besides, 16:9 has it's advantages, like in movies (no black bars), and especialy games when you have extra space sideways. Biggest example is in Starcraft II:
:rockout:
Regarding the resolution, you guys probably never used a 27" incher with 1920x1200(1080) resolution. I have one, and even if the screen is big, the text is VERY SMALL for my taste. And the image is crystal sharp. So there is absolutely no need for a bigger res. Trust me. Better for games also.
What I really want, though, is a QSXGA (2560x2048) monitor....
Edit: Sorry, didn't see this was a few days old. Let's blame my vacation. :)
