Question for you.

Widescreen monitors are now most definitely in.  But does anyone know _why_?

I can understand them on laptops.  And clearly widescreen TVs are better for films.  But why monitors?

Now projector monitors would be cool. You just want to have everything connected to everything so you can just say "I'll use my monitor, my projector, my microwave and my iPhone as monitors please".

As will happen in the future!

Yes! And with cloud computing, so you can be working on a document on your machine at work, decide to head home, drag the open window onto your iPhone and keep working on it on the train and when you get home, drag it onto your home theatre screen!

Now that _would_ be magic.
