Yes true
well i suppose we are in the beginnings of this kind of display technology, and ASUS have still done a great job with serving us this product, which at least as a secondary display for a mac, pc or notebook/macbook is definitely a useful work tool
My problem is that it also prevents the actual mac screen from playing the movies if the ASUS screen is also attached, so i cant even watch it on the main screen.

I also use an app called Duet which allows me to mirror or extend my Mac screen to an Ipad using a usb lightning connector, and i cant even play itunes movies on that (2K screen resolution), when the MB169+ is attached to the Mac

Looks like this screen is for my workflow, but not for media consumption, which is going to be what the majority want to use it for.
