What are you running?
I got a new 21.5" monitor the other day, and am running a resolution of 1920x1080 via HDMI cable 
Everything is now super widescreen!

Isn't 1920x1080 what's considered "HD"? Think mine's been setup through my TV like that for ages.

It IS 1080p HD resolution. 1360x768 isn't a native HD resolution, but it's what a lot of 'HD' and 'HD' monitors are being punted out with.
Currently running a 22" at 1680x1050 and a 19" 4:3 at 1280x1024. Wouldn't mind a decent Dell 24", but it's the monies

I run dual monitors (22") with 1680x1050 found that 1920x1080 on duals was far to small

1920x1080 on a desktop computer would annoy me, dot pitch is too small.

The more on screen at once the better imo.
Just checked the laptop I'm on, 1680x1050

Not if it makes everything too small to read.
Plus a big screen is no good for sitting close to because your focal length needs to change to look at the extremities. Mine are arranged so they're all the same distance from my face.

40" TV's are too big, my 24" is nice I think, could probably go a bit bigger and be comfortable.
1920x1080 is less pixels than an older style 14:10 monitor.

My solution is fairly low res monitors but more of them.

Resolution is good on my screen, graphics are being output from my laptop via the HDMI port on it.
It's about 80cm away from where I sit at my desk.

What size screen is it Chris? My laptop is 15.4" widescreen and can only handle a maximum resolution much lower than that!
