I wouldn't pay this for a 19" that isn't a widescreen. You have better options in the £100 range. Here is just one example that will save you 1p and you won't even have to leave the house!

I much prefer a 4:3 monitor for PC use.
A widescreen is often wasted for PC use, as toolbars are top and bottom, not at the sides. So a taller monitor is more usefull than a wider one - you get more usefull space.

...as are most DVDs. But there will always those who resist progress, and they are usually found shopping in Asda (that last bit is a joke btw)

But some people, including me, play games and watch DVDs on a widescreen TV not a moniter
