...the 16:9 format. It was done for people who do not work.
I seriously doubt it. 16:9 is a standard HDTV format, with 1920x1080 being "full" HDTV (1080P). A 1920x1080 16:9 PC screen allows to watch HDTV format video fullscreen without distortion, besides facilitating (HTPC) users to use a TV instead of a dedicated PC display.
For serious PC users, 1920x1200 (16:10) screens are still being made, and what I have been using as my primary display since before 2560x1440, 2560x1600 and 3840x2160 became available.
...if you are spending a insane amount of money. I am still quite O.K, but they will not pay me that amount on the sidewalk :-p Seriously, before that size was affordable for all. Now if I see stuff like Eizo only........
