Minor side note: Vertical space being much more important than horizontal for both code and other text is the primary reason I'd never consider getting a widescreen monitor.
Widescreen monitors are awesome as an alternative to dual-screen monitors. I liked the idea of being able to compare stuff side-by-side with dual screens, but never liked the implementation. Too much fussing around and an ugly gap in the middle.
As for vertical space, I just made sure the monitor I bought had as much or more than the old one it replaced.
