Does this display offer a 60 Hz refresh rate at 4K via either modern DisplayPort or HDMI 2? As I mentioned in "4K is for Programmers" [1] and its follow-up [2], the 30 Hz refresh offered by the current generation of 4K televisions is the principle deficiency when using them as monitors.

30 Hz is of course workable, which is precisely why 4K is for programmers, after all. :) But all of us would take a 60 Hz option in a heartbeat if it were available.

That said, I prefer the 39" form factor offered by Seiki for 4K. Around 50 inches, a computer's display should be 8K+.

"This site does not support Internet Explorer 8 or older."

Au contraire, IE does not support your site. Actually, I can't even test if at least it renders the page in text mode because you blocked it, end of conversation.

I'm at work and our desktops were migrated from XP this year and we're stuck with IE 8, beucase it's "compliant" (with what, I wonder). I can't even load the cached page from Google...

This is very annoying, the site is just a blog, not a complex webapp that must ensure correct rendering and JS execution.

Sorry about that. I'll make it a point to remove that too-forceful block soon. In the meantime for what it's worth, you can read the ramblings via the RSS feed: http://tiamat.tsotech.com/tiamat.rss
