I have mine set to fill the wide screen and reg channels look stretched but you get used to it. if your doing design work i would think you would have a hard time with the stretch ..

Do what this guy said


I got me two of the dell 20.1 a few months ago. Yours apears to be the old one though (based off the stand)
