Unfortunately, the whole affair is a ripoff of epic proportions.  Put 
a 20" 4:3 display next to a 22" wide-screen display and the 4:3 model 
looks positively gigantic.  Since screen size is measured by the 
diagonal, making the screen wider than high drastically inflates that 
number.  A screen that's 5 inches tall by 19.5 inches wide is a 20" 
display.

You can still get 4:3 displays; see the NEC LCD195VX+ for example.  
NEC also sells color-corrected displays in 4:3 format, such as the 
LCD2090UXi-BK-SV.

You're probably not going to find these at your local Wally's World.
