For [[cathode ray tube]]s (CRT)s 4:3 was most common even in resolutions where this meant the pixels would not be square (e.g. 320x200 or 1280x1024 on a 4:3 display). Between 2003 and 2006, monitors with [[16:10 aspect ratio]] became commonly available, first in [[laptop]]s and later also in standalone computer monitors. Reasons for this transition was productive uses for such monitors, i.e. besides widescreen movie viewing and computer game play, are the word processor display of two standard [[A4 paper|A4]] or [[Letter (paper size)|letter]] pages side by side, as well as CAD displays of large-size drawings and CAD application menus at the same time.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.millertech.com/Technical_Specs.htm |title=NEMA Specifications |publisher=Miller Technologies |accessdate=2011-04-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120302030131/http://www.millertech.com/Technical_Specs.htm |archivedate=2012-03-02}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.necdisplay.com/support/css/monitortechguide/index05.htm |title=Monitor Technology Guide |publisher=NEC |accessdate=2018-05-30 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070315085244/http://www.necdisplay.com/support/css/monitortechguide/index05.htm |archivedate=2007-03-15}}</ref> 16:10 became the most common sold aspect ratio for widescreen computer monitors until 2008. ====16:9==== In 2008, the computer industry started to move from 4:3 and 16:10 to 16:9 as the standard aspect ratio for monitors and laptops. A 2008 report by DisplaySearch cited a number of reasons for this shift, including the ability for PC and monitor manufacturers to expand their product ranges by offering products with wider screens and higher resolutions, helping consumers to more easily adopt such products and "stimulating the growth of the notebook PC and LCD monitor market".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.displaysearch.com/cps/rde/xchg/SID-0A424DE8-28DF6E59/displaysearch/hs.xsl/070108_16by9_PR.asp |title=Product Planners and Marketers Must Act Before 16:9 Panels Replace Mainstream 16:10 Notebook PC and Monitor LCD Panels, New DisplaySearch Topical Report Advises |publisher=DisplaySearch |date=1 July 2008 |accessdate=2012-04-15 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120309054711/http://www.displaysearch.com/cps/rde/xchg/SID-0A424DE8-28DF6E59/displaysearch/hs.xsl/070108_16by9_PR.asp |archivedate=2012-03-09}}</ref> By 2010, virtually all computer monitor and laptop manufacturers had also moved to the [[16:9 aspect ratio]], and the availability of 16:10 aspect ratio in mass market had become very limited. In 2011, non-widescreen displays with 4:3 aspect ratios still were being manufactured, but in small quantities. The reasons for this according to Bennie Budler, product manager of IT products at Samsung South Africa was that the "demand for the old 'Square monitors' has decreased rapidly over the last couple of years". He also predicted that "by the end of 2011, production on all 4:3 or similar panels will be halted due to a lack of demand."<ref>{{cite web
