It's a pity that no one seems to make LCD displays of 19" or 20" but with a
higher than 1600x1200 resolution.

A friend of mine has a Dell 17" laptop, which has a native resolution of
about 1980x1440 or something silly. Now, that would make an ideal display
for an Iyonix. Why can't desktop LCD monitors go this high?
