The problem is, sport, that monitors in this range cost more than
a used porsche.

You really think you can sell a $2000 system that needs a $3000 monitor ?
(1K x 1K Non-interlaced)

As for 2000 x 2000, siggraph is coming up this summer, go there
and look at the nice 2K by 2K monitors. Then ask the price. Make
sure you have one of those nice shopping bag things they give away
to catch your jaw as it drops off your face.
