I see, it isn't 4:3 (or 1.33) of SDTV/Standard monitors, it's 1.5. As far as widescreen monitors, I'm not sure, mine has a resolution of 1920/1200, so that's a bit wider - 1.6 aspect. I think most widescreen movies are actually 1.7x:1 or great - many are 1.85:1 and some are even 2.33:1. I guess it's better than fullscreen, but I would have liked something just a bit wider, similar to what my monitor can do...
