No, he was referring to screen space, not physical height. That doesn't really matter.

4:3 = 1600x1200
8:5 = 1920x1200

As per the original post, the vertical height (1200 pixels) is the same where you get 320 more horizontal pixels in a 8:5 panel.

16:10 = 8:5

There are entirely equivalent ratios. DUH!

16:10 is typically used only because it is close to 16:9 which cannot be simplified in the same way.

Do you know what a ratio is?

4:8 = 2:4 = 1:2

and

16:10 = 32:20 = 64:40 = 8:5

All depends on the monitor. Especially large CRTs can go way beyond 1600x1200. DUs 21" can do 1800something x1440.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
