A very few models with 4:3 screens are still made, but they are
definitely a tiny fraction of the overall models available. Look more
for business products than consumer products (and the business products
tend to be harder to find and are not always available at retail). Also
look for models with screen sizes below 15" and you may find a few more
4:3 screens.
