[comp.sys.hp] Who makes this display?

	[This is a repost -- it looks like the 1st try didn't get out,
	 this time I'll avoid cross-posting]


	My wife is looking at an RFP that specifies a display with
	these characteristics:

		Grayscale, 16 levels of gray
		19-inch monitor
		At least 1660 x 1200 pixels (might have been 1660 x 1280)
		400 dpi resolution

	This sounds like it's targeting some particular piece of hardware.
	Does anyone know what equipment matches the description?

	Please reply by email; I don't subscribe to this newsgroup,
	and our news server probably retains articles in it for only
	1/2 day.

This doesn't add up; 1660x1200 (or x 1280) on a 19" monitor isn't anything
close to 400 dpi; 4k x 3k on a 19" is only about 300 dpi.  (If it's the 
latter you're looking for, a company called Megascan makes a display
system at this resolution, but I am not aware of any support for it by any
major workstation manufacturer.
