Monitor One-Upmanship From IBM

The IBM LCD will do 3840x2400 which would make me SO much more productive ;-)" Who says 200dpi is only for the labs? I'd rather have two of these than one 61" display anyhow. 3840 x 2400 would mate nicely with the Nikon D1x I also don't have.

    Never mind that 35mm-sized camera stuff, timothy. Try Kodak's "medium-format" digital photography. Dual hard disks, firewire, 36 bit CCD, 4080x4080 image sensor. Just add Hasselblad.

    Does anyone else remember an outfit that was supposed to be making a universal digital back for SLRs? It seems the sensors are of a reasonable size now... I wish I could make my (cheapish) SLR into a digicam - it has way more control than my Kodak DC280 (decent picture, average controls).
