I agree. There is a since-fixed exploit in IE which allows for the falsification of the address bar, but placing an image over the address bar? Impossible.
Prices will almost certainly come down for such screens. The first LCD displays were also very expensive.
What can you display on them?
I don't know about you, but I use 2048x1536 as if it were high-res 1024x768. I set my display adaptor to render text at 135dpi, and increased Windows's font size throughout.
Based on a previous Slashdot article that I can't seem to locate, more and more developers are advocating a switch to vector, rather than bitmapped graphics for UI elements.
For me, at least, the higher the DPI, the better. I still hate reading large amounts of text on a computer display because individual pixels are much larger than molecules of pigment.
I've noticed that a lot of users are stating that extra bandwidth is unnecessary.
Keep in mind that today's top-of-the-line LCD displays, running at QUXGA (3200x2400) require multiple DVI dual link connections, and comprise multiple discrete panels, each with its individual signal feed. A display by IBM (T221, I believe is the model number) currently does this.
I believe Lenovo manufactures IBM's flat panel displays. Could the T221 be a potential justification for Lenovo to co-sponsor this technology?
If the size of perceivable objects diminishing with distance is an inverse square relationship (as it is with light intensity...)
Forty inches at seven feet is equivalent to approximately one inch (.81 inches, to be precise) at one foot, which isn't that big. It'll fill most of field of vision, though (hold a ruler one inch from your eye and compare).
I mean, assuming that for some reason the people living in those areas "forget" they are not supposed to dig stuff up by the radioactive waste dump over a few generatino
"A few generations" is not equivalent to the half life of plutonium.
If civilization has regressed so much that they wouldn't have any geiger counters or any knowledge of radiation
Despite the possession of radiation detection devices, future generations would not think to employ them when beginning to dig at the site.
I would think that that civilization would figure out rather quickly that they shouldn't have dug stuff up there when some of their people start to die gruesomely.
But by then, it would be too late, as alpha particles (etc...) will already be escaping the burial site.

ViewSonic is the brand I use. Three P90f flat CRTs (I got them all for free.) The ViewSonic pro series is best; the other products are about average.
For me, at least, the monitors have to be identical, as subtle color shifts between different monitors become especially evident when using a multimon setup. It's annoying when one monitor's 9300K differs from another's. It's also nice to have identical bezel widths, so that windows transition properly from one monitor to another.
Microsoft released Microsoft Windows Anti-Virus (MWAV) with Windows 3.1! This is nothing new. In fact, had Slashdot been around with the release of 3.1, this would be a dupe!

Or, should I have said, "Whats the problem? Its spellt corectly."
What's the problem? It's spelt correctly.
I don't consider disasters as consequences of poor engineering to be especially funny.
Well, here's my response:

I said QUXGA. That's a quad UXGA, which are 1600x1200.
QXGA is quad XGA, which is 2048x1536.

Origami didn't work because devices already existed which replicated its functionality. It's not really a question of cost.
Viiv didn't work for the same reasons; it's nothing new.

Did you read the post's link? It's an external box which can split a single head's output into multiple display channels.
That's why this is significant.

How did Microsoft become so successful, then?
Yes, but the *majority* of Google's services do not constitute the indexing of illegal material. Most Torrent indices do, however.

Why do you say this? Transparent alumina has a rather high melting point.
