Why does my 16:9 moniter use 1440x900 (16:10) resolution?

on the box it say 16:9 moniter that works best at 1440x900 resolution. i tried it, everything looks great. but 1440x900 is a 16:10 resolution! and when i try a 16:9 resolution, it looks distorted...


Answer:

it has to do next to the space of the pixels in the monitors LCD panel... they're not immaculately square... so running a 16:10 resolutions makes it work
explicitly a cheaper wide peak monitor. it tries to emulate a true wide blind.
They lied.



19 wide panel are 1440 by 900 - 16:10, as far as I am aware, any 19 monitor is going to be the same.



Try to cogitate of it as gaining and extra 90 pixels distance from the ground rather than losing 160 pixels wideness.





I would guess that the people who wrote the spiel on the carton be not up on the real systematic specs. Also people know that 16:9 resources widescreen. 16:10 might confuse some culture despite being more accurate.
