I want to get one of these Dell monitors because with coupons they are half the price of Apple's beautiful LCDs but I'm not sure what the difference is with the widescreen aspect in comparison to the standard 1600x1200. Can anyone explain what the advantages of having the widescreen are?

Also, I am primarily running Adobe programs for school and also using GRASS(a GIS program) if this makes any difference. I plan on getting one and adding another monitor down the road when I have some more spare cash laying around.

Cheers! 😱
