    It should have a built in coffee maker and be able to do all the PP for you automatically for that kind of money.
    Ha ha no kidding! The 4K version is "only" $1,000 more. Presumably that one can make cappuccino

    Thanks everyone. My photo tower powers a 55' 10 bit Samsumg 4k tv, I have color calibrated it once. 1T ssd for apps and 4t and 15t mechanical drives for storage/back up.

    Can clearly see the difference when in 10 bit vs 8 bit color space. When going up, "oh that is nice" when going down to 8 bit it is "uggg what mud!!!"

    I was not displeased with the speed of my 2019 dell inspirion (1t ssd that made all the difference when I installed it)

    It seems my options are a new 2t ssd for a few hundred and all the time reloading windows or 2k on a new box and MAYBE shorter relod/config time
    If you see me with a wrench, call 911

    I replaced 2560 x 1440 monitor with a 4K monitor about a year ago, both 27 inch. The new monitor made a nice difference, BUT--I think that is largely due to other factors that are better on the new monitor (gamma performance and contrast when the total brightness is appropriately low).

    Both monitors were from Samsung, and neither in the same class as the one Jonathan has his eye on.
