It looks nice, yes, but the special video card is really outrageous, 
especially since I've got a G5 on order already, and I'd presumably 
have to throw that perfectly good card away. Um, this is just a 
*little* stupid...

I use Macs for work of course, but I like playing games, too. I'd be 
a little fearful of frame rates in Quake not getting up there at 
23000 x 18000 pixels, or whatever the resolution of that beast is. If 
they want to sell more monitors, they should publish some speed stats 
to reassure any gamers that the monitor won't prove to be a bad thing 
for their games, rather than a good thing. Me, I keep any weird 
hardware out of my system to maximize my compatibility.
