   I've noticed many people at work with their laptops, and they seem
   to have an LCD which has wide screen dimensions.  This might be
   fine for viewing DVDs, but having not used one, I'm not sure how
   I'd feel using one for daily work.  Its not like you can rotate the
   LCD on a laptop to "landscape mode" like you can with some other
   LCD monitors (which seems like a nice feature!).

I'm not a fan of widescreens myself.  For things like text editing
it's useless, and it's none too helpful for web browsing either.
