What We Think

16:10 has always been a good format for IT, partly because it makes portrait-format documents a bit easier to read. The reality is that the only reason that 16:9 was adopted was that the cutting was better in fabs designed for TV panels in that aspect ratio. It really is good to see productivity displays with good colour and IPS displays. (BR)
