Gimmie gimmie gimmie! I would almost replace my 30" Dell for that, I just have to wonder how it would be to use within windows.

It wouldn't distort the image, there would not be much vertical space since it's only 900px tall. Cutting 124px off of the 1280x1024 screen I'm using now at work would mean lots of scrolling to read web pages, documents, and viewing photos. It doesn't look like it's set up to rotate either. Clearly this is something you'd buy and sacrifice usability for the sake of gaming bliss.

Get two and stack them on top of each other :P

If this were as thin as regular LCD's, it'd be the sexiest thing ever.

Too big though, they need to make an LCD version that is as thin. Then I think they will fly off the shelves. At this size though they may break the shelves. How heavy is it?

Too bad it doesn't have 5760x1080p. Give two 8800gt cards a real workout.
