For some users, a notebook with a 19" LCD is TOTALLY justifiable! A 19" screen is great for users with visual impairments. While it's not meant to be lugged around, it's great for people who need notebooks- students, professionals, etc who just need a little portability.
I'm legally blind and I have many friends who are vision impaired as well. We all have the same complaints - 15" LCDs are too small and 17" widescreens aren't any better. We're the same ones with 20"+ CRTs & LCDs at home running 800x600.
Finally, a 19" widescreen! YES! We'd be happy to see 16" from Dell too.
