Have a notebook, so widescreen (4/3 notebook become scarce, 4/3 monitor also, I believe).

Since you "forced" me to get a new computer to play the Escahalon: Book 2 expansions I got a 23 inch LED monitor to upgrade from my 14 inch iBook's screen.

Yeah, doesn't this poll question "discriminate" against laptop users?! :roll:

Anyway, I play on a MacBook, so... whatever size that is! ;)
(And my plans to upgrade to the 17" MacBook Pro look to be on hold for quite a while now... :( )

No. All laptops sold in the past 5 years are widescreen.

I still weep for my old 21" Sun CRT monitor I had been using up through last year some time. I loved being able to hop down into really low native resolutions when doing stuff like DOSBox and the like. Alas! Still, I do love the increased clarity available on my shinier LCD, though.

My monitor is 1280 x 1024. I've never gotten a widescreen monitor because I just don't like them. Everybody else loves widescreen. I just don't.

...Sort of the opposite as with movies.

I need to tick the box for the traditional 17" screen, as that's what I've got, but looking in the shops I see mainly widescreen now.
As you were already seriously thinking about widescreen support, I would certainly go that way.
