<div dir="ltr">Agreed. As a monitor it has some issues -- 30Mhz refresh rate at 4K being the biggest, but also issues with timeouts/screensavers and switching inputs. I've been tempted to make the plunge, but haven't pulled the trigger. I'm assuming that as a desktop, the refresh rate won't be an issue (static text doesn't need much of a refresh).<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Sep 16, 2014 at 11:48 AM, Gary Buhrmaster <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gary.buhrmaster@gmail.com" target="_blank">gary.buhrmaster@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On Tue, Sep 16, 2014 at 1:01 PM, George Galt <<a href="mailto:george.galt@gmail.com">george.galt@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

The tradeoffs for the current (cheaper) generation of 4K<br>
monitors is worthwhile for some, a deal breaker for<br>
others. As with everything tech, there are better<br>
displays (at better prices) coming RSN. Maybe.<br>
The Seiko has gained a following because it is<br>
available today, and one can see productivity gains<br>
now (not some unknown future).<br>
