18" lappy with only 1080p is terrible. Why hasn't the computer industry accepted that 1920x1200 is the better resolution?
better? objectively? i don't think so.
subjectively, if you need more vertical pixels, it is a better suit to you.
but in reality it is impossible to objectively say 1200 vertical pixels is "better"
than 1080, it's just more.
some cars hold more gas, some computers have more memory.
some games have more coders.
subjectively that may sway your decision one way or the other, but
that is entirely dependent on your personal needs and preferences.
some people may want a screen that fits the format that ALL HD media is
released in. some people want more vertical pixels. that would decide
what better suits them, but not which is better.
so there, i think - is why the industry hasn't accepted it. it's not true.
