LCD actual size comparison

[Indus]

I saw a diagram here somewhere, of actual sizes of width and heights of an lcd scaled to each other like how a 20.1" widescreen lcd is the same height as a 17" normal version.

Can anyone post that link or guide me to it please?

so a widescreen 19inch has a smaller screen size than a 5:4 19inch?

How did you work that out? Area = w x h

A wide screen is always going to have lower screen realesate than an comparable non widescreen.
