This is quite a bargain. 3840 x 2160 pixels! Not a great monitor (TN, not IPS; 30Hz), but still perhaps useful.

Linus bought one: <https://plus.google.com/+LinusTorvalds/posts/4MwQKZhGkEr>
Some think that the headline is that Linus bought it from the Microsoft Store.
We can buy it cheaper: US price was US$299 but ours is C$299.
Too bad the video handling hardware in it is so awful (100ms to process the data before displaying it? Ouch). It is effectively at best 10Hz. I think trying to use a mouse with that screen would drive you crazy. If you are just displaying a lot of text then it is probably fine. -- Len Sorensen
