I just saw an Samsung ad for a 16:10 monitor? What's the deal with 16:10? The US is being dragged kicking and screaming to 16:9 and long before that's complete, now we have 16:10. Where did that come from?

16:10 computer monitors (I've never seen a 16:10 HDTV), when large enough, can display the contents of two pages of letter sized documents (side by side) efficiently.

Makes sense to me that, as CRTs are displaced by LCDs, computer manufacturers would take advantage of flexibility of form factors to produce a better product.
