Generally, they don't make 'em because there's no market. Sure, one or two customers out of hundred would buy them, even if they're more expensive, but the other 98 or 99 wouldn't.

You also have to keep in mind that a desktop monitor usually has more distance to the viewer.

I have to admit, I too would love to buy a 19" 4:3 display at 1600*1200. Alas: They don't seem to see a market there, so they don't build them (yet?).
