OT: Need to Borrow $: Curved Display!

Of course, this isn't a "need"; however, it is a definite want. So, who here has some mullah they would like to invest in my purchase of one of these. I promise I will post my findings to the forum :)

Here's the link.

For $6,500 I 'll have to suffer along without it.

I've seen these kind of displays at NAB.

They are never very good, because they are multiple projections onto one surface, and the light values seem to shift a lot from projector to projector.

If they could do it with LCD or something like that, we'd be talking a much better display and thinner too.

From the looks @ the page, it's aimed @ mac heads.

They'll drop $6500 now another $6500 next year when the v2.0 monitor comes out. :)

Well, there's only one way to put these questions to the test: fork over some funding and I will test it out and give a recommendation to the forum... just send the money to my paypal :)

You'd do much better building it out of Christie Microtiles. No problem with brightness, way wider gamut etc. Then again they are around $5,000 per sq foot.
