Untill recently, with few exceptions, every arcade monitor has been 4:3.  Or in the case of vertical games, 3:4.

I really, REALLY don't think you'll find a practical 1:1 square TV.

Ginsu Victim:

5:4 is about as close as you'll find, and that's still not square.

Serious mode: The reason the TV looks squarer than your arcade monitor is because you have probably seen your arcade monitor without it's bezel.  Underneath the whole CRT seems a bit rounder.

Also if your monitor is older it might actually be just a tiny bit rounder than a newer TV.
