I used to work for the parent company of a startup in Pittsburgh, PA.
The startup is called MegaScan Technology.  They have recently exhibited
a 4K by 3K Black and White 19 Inch monitor with video memory and driver.
Essentially the resolution is 300 DPI.  The display is quite spectacular.
They also have a bit slice Raster-Op Engine and a 68020 CPU board set that 
can manipulate bit maps.

If you are interested, the company's address is :

MegaScan Technology
4005 Vista Vue Drive
Gibsonia, PA 15044
(412) 443-5820

I am no longer with any related company and I am supplying this information
not as an advertisement, but to let people know what is available.
