Re:John Carmack coded Quake on a 28-inch 16:9 1080p monitor ... by someone_welsh on Wednesday September 21, 2011 @08:24AM (#3021680)
At the distance from the screen which people generally watch TV, better resolution than HD makes no perceptible difference - it would be pointless and wasteful. At closer distances, such as those involved in using computers, higher resolutions are perceptible and so not irrelevant. Hence they exist for computers and not TVs. Sorry, no reference right now, may add one later
