[Rant]
I hate wide screen laptops. Bloody useless for everything except watching HD movies, which I don't do. The height is stupid for any sort of document, picture, diagram etc. unless it's landscape, which they rarely are in business docs. a 15.6" widescreen laptop sounds like a great improvement on a 14" standard screen, but it's actually worse.
Widescreen external monitors are a different kettle of fish, being big enough to present complete A4 portrait at adequate size.
