Are there any 4:3 monitors available at a sensible price nowadays? My trusty Iiyama is finally dying, and all monitors now seem to be 16:9 aspect. That's great for watching TV, but for desktop productivity work it sucks.
If you're editing a document you're looking at a page that's going to print in portrait, so you want to see height, not width. To get the same height as my old 17" monitor requires around 26" in a widescreen - and that takes over the whole desk!
I guess the high-volume flat panel manufacturing is driven by demand for TVs, so monitors have to follow suit, but it makes for a PITA :-(
It's a serious question, as well as a grumble, so any suggestions welcome.
