No - wide screens are great.  A 1920x1200 screen displays two A4
documents side-by-side, plus extra space for directories and the like -
simply wonderful!

Yes, I'm one of those.  But, although I feared the lower resolution of
a large widescreen monitor would be a problem, it really isn't in
practice.  The crisp focus and lack of distortion is much less tiring
on the eyes than any large CRT screen I've used.
