Walter, I'm with you, but I think what's going on is preparation for a sea change toward 4K Ultra High-Definition TV and 8K UHDTV. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition_television http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition_televisio... for the news.) These TVs are all multiples of the 1920x1080 areal unit and anything large that isn't will have bad economies of scale. Okay, fine, give me a retina eInk touch screen tablet like the lid of my RetinaMBP for reading PDFs, and give me a comfy chair and small desk facing a wall-sized, wall-embedded 8K UHDTV monitor (7680 × 4320 = 33.2 megapixels) for software dev. And maybe by then I'll be writing all my software in D. ;-) (I've been a fan of D for years, but that's a topic for a different thread.)
