There was a Slashdot article yesterday about the 4k monitors. The writer
implied that some users were affected by the low refresh rate and some were
not. I use a 2560x1440 27" monitor both at work and home, and I get 106
lines in an xterm window. I can see a lot more of a program with a window
that big and I really appreciate it.  The idea of a 4k monitor is exciting
though I would want to see what the 30 Hertz refresh rate actually looks
like.
