It feels like a fundamental paradigm shift. From 14" CRT at 640x480 to 17" at 1024x768 or 1280x1024, to typical widescreen 1920x1080 LCDs, and finally to 2560x

It feels like a fundamental paradigm shift. From 14" CRT at 640x480 to 17" at 1024x768 or 1280x1024, to typical widescreen 1920x1080 LCDs, and finally to 2560x1440: most screen upgrades were about more "screen space" so you can display more content simultaneously. This might mean that 4k never becomes a dominant factor in the desktop display market. There are too many corporate desks where they can say "You don't get any more Excel columns by going from 1080p or 1440p, so we won't spend the premium on a 4K monitor (or more GPU performance to feed it)"
