That does not leave much space for upgrades, CTX has already been taken by a computer monitor company, see the CTX website.

You're a bit behind, aren't you? I got my first CTX *years* ago. I particularly appreciate the big screen on the side that lets me see what's going on inside my computer.

I'm sure that this company will claim trademark infringement on at least one of the designs...

Actually, the antenna was meant to be attached to a CB radio... He was also going to paint the case blaze orange & embellish it with the confederate flag, ala the General Lee but he ran out of room and had to shelve the idea. I really think he should revisit the idea, though - maybe when he mods this bad boy.

Not to mention 16x9 is a rip off

do the math, the diagnal on a 16"x9" screen is 18.35, and gives you 144" square.

Now look at a square 18" screen (yes I know they're not totally square, but they are mostly): 12.7"x12.7" and 162" square.

on plasma screens especially, the lesser the materials, the cheaper (unless you have economy of scale working against you)!

the only thing it'd be good for is letterbox, but who uses their computer in letterbox (aside from silly iMac people)?

My solution? buy this, you might have to get an HDTV tuner, but it'll be all digital, 1024x768, will input VGA from your computer, and will be less than $1,100 (including shipping) off pricewatch, and it's 27inches of happiness!

Check out the CTX MS3800V it's 38"/36" Viewable.
