Widescreen PCs are those with a rectangular “letter-box” format that enable side-by-side viewing of documents or graphics. Widescreen PC displays have a 16:9 aspect ratio. Made popular by widescreen TVs, the average enterprise computer user now demands widescreen displays for business applications. Widescreen PCs are used in hospitals to view patient records alongside x-rays or lab results, or in any industry where multitasking is needed.
Widescreen Technology
Widescreen computer displays refer to width-to-height aspect ratios greater than 4:3. Most widescreen PCs or displays typically have a 16:9 aspect ratio. Before 2003, most computer displays used a 4:3 aspect ratio. As LCD displays became more popular and the prices decreased, computer users starting buying widescreen models with a 16:9 aspect ratio. The demand came from the obvious benefits: the ability to display and compare documents side by side, to view CAD or other large drawings, and to view data from two different sources simultaneously. The screen resolutions for widescreen PCs vary, and include 1024x576, 1152x648, 1280x720, 1600x900, and 1920x1080.
