Both are 16x9 which is painful to use.  I don't have to care about cost so I
get to buy the best.  I don't have to settle for cheap plastic garbage PC
laptops because they're less expensive.   Every single appeal I've seen to
the worth of the PC laptop centers on cost.  I do not care about cost, at
all.  It is absolutely not a consideration when I am buying a machine.
