Hello everybody,

Just wondering if you know if laptops exist that can both run Linux
and support terminals with ultra-high resolution (specifically, a DELL
3007WFP which can go up to 2560x1600 @ 60 Hz).

If it uses nVidia or ATi graphics cards, then you can use the closed source
driver to get support for max resolution in Xorg, for consoll you vill most
likely only be able to use the VESA driver and I think that is hitting a limit
at 1280x1024.

Well, but what is that maximum resolution? So far, I've only seen
desktop graphics cards that support 2560x1600. Does appropriate laptop
technology even exist? I am not sure at this point...
