I'm almost always bouncing between multiple windows, so when I'm editing I actually have a full height doc (@ 80%)on the right and then room on the left to get at other things (CMD windows, emails, etc...) With a decent resolution monitor, and ClearType enabled, there are very few cases where I find I need to use the Office Apps or a browser at 100% scale. I find 75-80% works well, and I can usually get a full page in there. Ditto for CMD windows.... I permanently crank the font down to a ~9 point(as well as go green-on-black) and can get a couple of 50-line tall windows rolling without sucking up all the screen real estate.

I changed my 22" to portrait and have never looked back. PDF files, page at a time and readable. Websites, no scrolling to get to the bottom (or significantly less). Since most websites are aligned for 1024 horizontal resolution, you won't have to scroll left or right. And, I find I prefer a long screen than a wide screen when remoting into servers.
