This is stonkering progress ... my precious DELL two years ago was ~$770 and had a 2560x1440 resolution which stunned me at the time, and I still enjoy it. Now for the same price we're up to 3840x2160, but only an inch extra on the diagonal. I guess in about a year I'll upgrade. Progress in this area is really amazing. From my childhood I remember a scene in the book *The Andromeda Strain* where Michael Crichton describes the most sophisticated screen imaginable at the time for medical investigators who have enough funding to try and save humanity. I vaguely recall a description of thousands of optical fibres all converging into the back of a screen to produce an image of unimaginable clarity. (look it up for yourself, as I last read it in 1972). However, the movie was pretty good for it's day. Greg K
