That's the worst monitor I've ever seen, about half way down the page. What's up with that?

Square or portrait aspect monitors rock for most computer work that's not media. Give it a try sometime.

Yeah I did. In 2005. With 1024x768 square screen laptops.

Of course, downvoted for point out how a dumb screen ratio is bad. Typical HN.
