I suspect it was not designed to handle the bandwidth needed for 1600x1200. DVI may be the future, but the ports are limited by the transmitters driving them, just as CRT ports are limited by the RAMDAC. As 1600x1200 LCDs become more popular, I'm sure you'll see the capabilities of DVI ports increase.
