>>for laptops, dell seems to love 16:9 aspect ratio, which makes them inappropriate for development.

Inappropriate how, exactly?

They are too short for reading terminals or documents. Macs are 16:10 which is a little bit better

How about "suboptimal"? 16:9 is OK for games and great for movies, and 1080p is at least wide enough that it can be reasonable to stick 2 terminals side-by-side, but it would be even better if it was a little taller.
