I know that the wide screen on my Mac works fine. You get more tracks if visible too.

I've got a toshiba portege with a 1400x1050 screen, which isn't exactly wide screen, but definitely a wacky resolution. It works just fine and you've got plenty of tracks visible. Go for it :P

i use a 15.4" widescreen pc laptop and it works awesome with live. everything looks just the same, only you will be able to see more tracks on the screen at once (up to 15 or so, depending on how large you keep your clip browser). it's an awesome screen for watching movies or browsing the web as well.

widescreen for life baby.
