Woah check out this monitor system:

How much do you think it would cost for the system on the right?

Oh my *@#%&^ God. That is so cool. Now someone can bring the real version of F355 Challenge to the Mac, and only the Mac.

Dunno, not too impressed. Basically it looks like they took 3 flat panels and stuck them together. Notice each machine has 3 graphics cards. Anyone could do that. . .granted the monitors may not be so close together and look near as cool.

Not too bad but for those kinda prices I'm more inclined just to buy 3 separate display units.

this was in MacAddict last month I think... If I remember correctly the display was about $22,000.... The cool thing was that each panel was about 2mm apart from one another...

This would be really cool for a flight sim....

I wish I knew where I saw it, but the coolest monitor setup was someone running 5 monitors on a rather large desk running Linux Quake.

Made the keyboard in the middle look rather puny.

Did he stick a rear view mirror on the front monitor so he could get a good look around?

$14,699

though it would all be alot cooler if one of the panels was a touch screen too, with the required software of course.

So are these just bought Apple parts stuck together with Elmers glue?

Actually, I think Apple bought their parts and cut them apart with scissors.

yeah, not many people know that lcds are actually made in huge sheets that get cut into smaller sections that are used for screens, much like paper money is printed on sheets, and then cut, and then they stack it up and put a little paper thing around it so it looks nice and then they give it to people or companies who make lcd monitors so that they can see how it should be done, and that's why when lcd monitors are stored or shipped or whatever they stack them on top of each other but they don't wrap a paper thing around them cause the paper's already been cut into smaller pieces.

$22,000!! Eeekk!
It seems to me that for only $8,000 you could just buy 2 Cinema Displays.

Or for $16,000 I could have my dream system: 4 Cinema Displays mounted on the wall in a big square. Take the LCDs out of the cases, slap um together in a custom frame. Mmmmmm, Cinema Wall....


Ok, I gotta go clean myself up now.
