Now where's my 21" LCD with the same resolution. Max resolution these days that is readily available is maybe 1920x1200 or so. I'm sure I'm missing some technology limitations, but 5500x3200 should be possible if you could just have a bigger LCD panel with the same resolution per inch.
Is there some technology limitation.... or are manufacturers just being stupid?
There's a reason their IT department is known internally as "Walmart University"... hire n00bs who know nothing, pay them peanuts, train them. Wash, rinse, and repeat in about 3 years when they leave because of the realization that they'll never have a decent salary. -- Almost like going to school, but you get paid, and some odd prestige of having worked in the IT department of a "Fortune 1" company.
I was there. It sucked.
The vast majority of folks there had only been there a short time and lacked experience of any sort. The few long-timers stayed mainly because of their stock options. The success of IT (aka ISD) was more from writing a majority of software in-house (that did 99% of what was needed), instead of searching for off-the-shelf software that did 80% of what was needed.

One option that I've heard of that runs on Linux (and many other platforms) is Southware.

Maybe he's saying "sorry" TO the Linux community, knowing they'll bear the brunt of bad publicity from this.
