Nope, it was the monitor aspect that changed, of course. Think yourself: if only
my display resolution changed from 1.33 to 1.25, and monitor's physical aspect
stayed 1.33, wouldn't I have picture distortions then?
In case my new monitor physical aspect was 1.33, I would have had 1280x960 as
original resolution, while mine is 1280x1024.
Anyway, it's 5:4, in other words - 1.25.
