ViewSonic shows 200 dpi display

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the vision-of-beauty dept.

prostoalex writes "On Intel Developer Forum ViewSonic introduced its 200 dpi display. The 22.2 inch 3840x2400 monitor will sell for around $8,000." Maybe there's hope for all those obsessive folks trying to run Quake 3 at insane resolutions. Provided they'd rather have a monitor than eight grand!

    I wonder how many folks will look at the picture of that monitor, and honestly think to themselves, "Wow, that looks like a really clear picture."

    What we could do is invent some sort of font scaling mechanism so your letters could be displayed larger.

    What's the phone number of the patent office?
