Will 1200p make a big difference from 1080

You will shoot yourself in teh foot because you can't find wallpapers anywhere. other than that it's nice having an inch more to read.

In 2006ish Dell released a 30" TFT which has a screen resolution of 2560 x 1600 - I loved it (It's still about but in a newer model type and still costs about the same :( )

 

Most monitors back then were not 1080, they were usually 1200 tall which I liked, then all this widescreen bull started happening, it's like looking through a letter box, so when everything turned 1080 I refused to buy another PC monitor till they increase the height dimension. So I am now sat here with a 27" 1080 (letter box mode) TFT on the floor for when I need to test, 28" Hannsg 1960x1200 screen (very nice size), 2 x 40" TV's 60 1960x1080. My 30" dell has retired to the floor from ghosting and colour loss, but is good for testing.

 

I would love to see a screen that's 3000 x 2000 (or there abouts), now that I would buy in a heart beat and if it had the bezel on it that a mobile phone has (S4) then I would probably buy 2 or 3 at the same time given that it's under 5MS.

 

I don't like screens getting wider and wider and wider but not taller, I feel like I'm looking through Geordi La Forge's Visor!
