So, I guess what I mean to ask is where does 160 degrees fall on the viewing angle spectrum?

Typically one would want 178 for a tv and somewhere in the 160s-170s for computer, because a computer monitor generally is at exactly 90 degrees to the user. TV LCDs have to work for a whole room.
Will you be sitting in front of your monitor basically all the time? Or do you have chairs that are kinda off to the side that might be used? If the former, then 160 is fine. If the latter, I can find something else.
The largest viewing angle shown above is 160 degrees (ignore the "LCD, rear, plasma" thing).
