Well, actually, I was thinking more along the lines of widescreen TVs. :-) But I figured what's applicable to a desktop as far as the equivalent screen size would be applicable to a TV. :-)

My OPINION, based on experience, because I have deployed a lot of both standard and widescreen monitors is this: If you work with lots of big spreadsheets, or work with graphics (particularly movies), then widescreen may be a good idea. Otherwise, I don't see the value at this point in time. I'd rather have a 19" standard monitor than a 19" widescreen (for work, anyway).
