About this size
WXGA was the widescreen successor to XGA for the laptop market. The 16:10 ratio is taller than the 16:9 that eventually displaced it, which made WXGA more comfortable for document work and code editing than the wider format that came later. Most early MacBooks and ThinkPads shipped at WXGA.
