Best portrait monitor

I'm an IT consultant and I love this monitor so much that I've already bought about 30 of these monitors. Six for personal use. I had two problems with most monitors in portrait mode: they either seemed too tall or not wide enough. This monitor solves both problems. A resolution of 1600 x 1200 means you get 1200 pixels wide in portrait mode, which seems wide enough to me. I sometimes found the 1080 to be too tight, but I rarely feel that way about them. I also feel like I can still "see" the entire screen on them. With a 22" or 24" monitor in portrait mode, I felt like I had to move my head to scan top to bottom because they were so big. I have two workstations that I use primarily, each with a mix of these portrait displays and 22" or 24" landscape displays. I've found that I typically use portraits for email, browsing, or anything text related. I don't do much video or imaging work, but I've never noticed any speed issues with these monitors. I also didn't notice any of the color or white color issues that others have mentioned. Another nice thing about it is the input data. There is VGA, DVI, Composite Video and S-Video. You can even do PIP with analog video signals. There is also a built-in USB hub that you will need. The only thing I'm not keen on is the menu controls, but they're no worse than most other monitors, and they're real buttons that don't seem to be pressed accidentally. Of course, most of what I've said relates to 1600 x 1200 resolution rather than picture quality, but a cursory search on Newegg for monitors with that resolution shows the rest are at least double the price. If you're looking for a portrait monitor, I don't see a better deal.
