17" 4k will arrive this year, are you claiming it's false?


No, I'm just saying they aren't available; and I think the in terms of screen real estate, a 17" 3840x2160 is actually a step down in functionality from a 17" 1920x1200. Sure it's got more resolution, but my eye isn't good enough to benefit much from the higher resolution. But I will miss that loss of 17% of screen area. So returning to the original point I think that supports my case that laptops have peaked in functionality and now they're just adding bells and whistles.

Bigger screen and It's not a laptop anymore. But if you like your old computer, 
keep it.


I will keep it (in fact I've got two). But it's noticeably slow. That's why I was hoping for some real improvement.
