HP's 24-inch DreamColor LP2480ZX LCD Can Display More Than 1 Billion Colors

HP has just announced its new color-loving 24-inch computer professional display, the DreamColor LP2480ZX. Proud to be the world's first to provide more than 1 billion colors in a 30-bit LED-backlit display, HP's latest work of art delivers more than 64 times the colors available on today's mainstream LCDs. The display is result of a collaboration with DreamWorks Animation SKG and addresses the need for affordable and consistent color accuracy in the animation, game development, film/video post, broadcast, product design and graphic arts segments. Moreover, the LP2480zx has native widescreen resolution of 1920x1200. HP also claims that the display's white luminance range is from 40cd/m2 up to 250cd/m2. The contrast ratio is 1000:1, the response time: 12ms black-to-white or 6ms gray-to-gray. Inputs include two DVI-I, one DisplayPort 1.1, one HDMI 1.3, one component (YPbPr), one S-Video, and one Composite. The display is also HDCP compliant. The new LP2480xz can already be found on the market for the reasonable price of $3,499.

Solaris17lol iv ne ver had a problem with 65 million colors...i think this is a waste because seriously how many shades of blue do you need?...i know having alot of colors is good for CG movies or games...but honestl most of those shades arent even distinguishable by the human eye.
blue is my favourite color. I WANT ALL ITS SHADES.

This is the LCD to move pro designers off CRT's.
