To the monitor manufacturers: 16:10 is 8:5, or did you not learn basic math?

[undeclared]

Just a thought.

16:10 is easier to compare to 16:9

Well, a two by four divides down to one by two, which breaks down further into one half and one.

Duhhhhhhhhhhh.

16:10 is easier to compare to 16:9

Kind of ironic since recently many the media industry hold the 9 constant without reduction for comparison, Common media ratios. (although not 100% accurate)

12:9 (standard def)
13:9 (IMAX)
14:9 (commercial) <- inbetween format
(16:10 would be hear at 14.4:9)
16:9 (widescreen)
20:9 (70mm standard (Super Panavision 70))
25:9 (Ultra Panavision 70)
26:9 (Original Panavision)

They should change 4:3 to 16:12 too

 

[Bl0cks]

Really? I don't care about the ratio, I just want a good resolution.

Eww widescreen is infinitely better. I finally went widescreen 2 weeks ago and it's awesome.
