| 869501 | 2010-03-23 18:35:00 | I currently have 3 19" (not widescreen) LCD monitors attached to my computer. I am looking at replacing one with a widescreen, but am not sure what size I need. It needs to be as close to the height of a 19" display (ignoring the surrounds) as possible, but definitely no shorter (slightly taller is fine). Anyone know what size widescreen I should be looking at? The sizes of widescreens don't seem to match the size of non-widescreen monitors. And it's a bit expensive for some trial-and-error testing :D And on the note of widescreen monitors, is there anything I should look for or avoid? Cheers, Mike. |

| 869503 | 2010-03-23 20:13:00 | If you are thinking 22'' you might have to go to a 16:10 aspect ratio to get that height. A 24'' with a 16:9 would also be about that height. |
