Mac gets it point #1
2560-by-1600 IN A THIRTEEN-INCH LAPTOP.
2880x1800 display in a 15" LAPTOP.
See ebay: HERE
I'm tempted to grab one of those 2880x1800 for 150, and purchase a compatible controller board for $100. There's a guy who made his own... If we can find a 2880x1800 for ~$80 or less, it's an instant-buy, to be honest. Though, you can grab a 9" retina display for around the same price.
point #2
Edit:
I firmly believe the problem with monitors, is that the prices do not scale appropriately. As higher resolution and hertz etc comes out, the lower-end models should drop in price, by orders of magnitudes. The problem is that people still buy the lower end models, bringing up the price of said models, so there's a marginal if any, difference between the two. Thus, screen-makers are not as inclined to offer a good deal for their lcd screens except in the case of TV's which, by comparison, still suck.
