Rockin' the parachute pants there, steadycam dude.

Fair point.

That's a fair point.

We're pretty close to 4K on laptops. Dell is selling 28" 4K monitors for under $700 so give it another year or so I guess.

They definitely look awesome. However those displays at Best Buy are running custom demo movies. The whole thing is designed to make you want 4K. With a real movie at a normal viewing distance, the benefits are not as great as the manufacturers would like to suggest. It also requires much more from the filmmaking…
