Dimensions are 43.5 " x 11.5" - 478 sq inchs viewable. The monitor looks great and it could be yours for only $27,000. " /me wipes drool off of chin.

  1. Wait for XFree86 4.0 by Capt+Dan · · Score: 5

    Honestly.

    In a couple of months XFree 4 will be out with its neato multihead support. Then plunk down 12 G's for three of Apple's Cinerama flatscreens. 22" diagonal at 1600x1024 resolution each. More sceen real estate, at half the cost.

    Or get a couple of the regular flatscreens. Then do one of the following with the savings:

    - pay off *all* of your student loans
    - hire a maid service
    - feed and clothe orphans
    - eBay eBay eBay.
    - Pay some guy to wait in line for you for Matrix 2 tickets
    - Build a school in some third world country
    - Pay some guy to reload /.'d web sites for you
    - buy a car
    - Strippers. Strippers. Strippers.
