In the past yoiu could get decent res:- 1280x1024 or above and quite commonly 1600x1200 and at 2ms response times. However it seems that some idiot somewhere decided that we only watch videos on our computers so we only need 1920x1080 at 5ms response times, and for crappy lappies only 1366x768.

There are options for higher-res screens; they've been around for a while too. They're just not as common.
I was going to leave this thread alone, since it's a bit OT, but did just notice that you can buy 30" 2560x1600 monitors for under $500 if you shop around! Just think how many X Terminals you could have open at once on that baby.. -T
