Hi,
yes, not with NX4 but with NX2.
Why should 16:9 give any problem? The only one is if you have corporate settings for toolbars which are fitted to 4:3 and thus would not be appropriate for another aspect ratio of the screen.

I use a Dell M60 with 1600x1050 display and it's far better than my 1280x1024 19" monitor. The dialogs don't eat up so much of the graphics window. Of course, dual monitors are even more preferable.

I have been using dual monitors. one 16:9, the other you normal size. I love it!
 
I also use 16:9 ratio screen with NX4. No issues.

The only thing you may wish to do is go to Preferences -> Visualization and select the tab labeled 'Screen'. Then select the large button labeled 'Calibrate'. Here you can adjust the size and shape of the 'circle' to assure that you're getting a properly proportioned display.

Yes, as John Baker said, I had to go to preferences>visualization>screen and calibrate because suddenly my circles were oval shaped.
