Get a monitor stand that swivels, so you can use the 16:9 ratio to your advantage. The only catch is that you start noticing when people write long lines over 120 chars, though they shouldn't do that in the first place.
Edit: It's also really awesome for reading/editing documents, since you can fit the full page onscreen.
- rodh257 14y agoI do this, however I feel my 16:9 monitor is just a touch too thin, whereas 16:10 gives a perfect width.
- r00fus 14y agoI'm doing this right now @ work with 2x16:9 monitors. Coworkers are amazed and amused, but if you don't do this with IPS panels, the vertical viewing angles (now horizontal) are pretty bad on most non-IPS monitors... so it's sometimes hard to share your screen.
