Remember... Multiple Monitors Increases Productivity
*looks at 10 panel display*
WHOA!
His productivity's way off the charts!
Anyone remember the flight sim one?
/me drools
I think it just got owned...
Gah now I want one... put it on my entire desk...
To purchase simply punch in your PI Number:

You better be careful. Drooling over electrical equipment is bad for your health.
Just like the other site, which has been debunked.
I could be wrong though. But the design and the feel of the whole site is totally unprofessional.
YOU DECIDE!
Why does there need to be a bezel between the LCD panels? Is it possible make LCDs where the glass from one panel will touch the glass from the next? Granted, at that point you're no longer talking about creating a system from off-the-shelf components, but if I'm about to spend $150k on a setup like this, I hope that price will include *some* cusomization.
...to waste on 10 monitors, can someone please mod the other 8 redundant? ;)
If LCDs could be stacked side by side without any bezel, it should allow creating very large screen. It might also reduce costs of existing screens since I believe the cost of creating an LCD is worse than linear in its size.
So - exactly why do LCD displays require a surrounding bezel? I'd expect that for for both strength and connections it should be possible to attach to the LCD from behind. Or at least reduce the width of the bezel to something much lower (say, 1mm).
per screen resolution up to 3840 x 2400
So 10 screens as they show is a resolution of 19,200 x 4800. That's 92 Megapixels. That's 117 times as many pixels as a 1024x768 display.
All of a sudden your Geforce whatever is looking a little lame.
It's still pretty cool.
People who think they know everything really piss off those of us that actually do.
When you can pick up descent and cheap DLP 1024x768 Rear projection displays that can do 2000 ansi, why not just use a nice rear projector for your desktop wall.
Additionally if you want more resolution or immersion, buy a few rear projectors and use a circling curtain screen (Can be made with sheets even)
Not only would you have a seamless display, but it would be cheaper, and have a larger screen.
Many of our techs have used rear projectors for large display projects - even tiling them for seamless displays.
Also with the quality of even the low cost models (under $2000) you can make a quite impressive desktop for yourself. Especially when your eye stops being able to discern the pixels at certain distance - even if you are just using a 1024x768 projector for a flight sim or other immersion project.
I would recommend trying rear projection technology, and if you want the display to come at you, use a screen like the 'floating displays that were on here a month ago' and make the rear projection devices into front projection.
So instead of wasting $50,000 just pick up a couple of rear projection devices (LCD or DLP) and you can get a nice large display with a credible resolution.
