To note, 1920x1200 is not the counterpart to 1920x1080 (not that it matters though). 16:9 will also give you less issues as 1080p is the current mainstream resolution. It also upscales console resolution and movies, series and so on perfectly without any black borders.
Dell's monitor stands also got worse since 2010. Comparing the solid and rigid stand of my U2711 to my U2212HM makes me giggle - the stand on the U2212HM is a flimsy toy in comparison.
