I used to have dual monitors; didn't last long with me though. I really had no use for them. I mean it was great having much more desktop space, but the appeal didn't catch on with me that well.

nice monitors there reland i wonder whats the cost on one of those babies i would like to get the 3 monitor mockup monitor from your first post but im afraid it will end up costing bout 5 grand so instead i would buy a 50" plasma tv and use it for videogaming, Pc and dvd video use now talk about convenience :crazy:

Hi,
Those panoram tech monitors looks good but look at those 13 monitors now thats just plain awesome!!
You would need alot of space though! And money!
That also looked like a good game to play on it to make the most of them!
