I'd be more excited about monitors which can attach to other monitors without a visible bezel between both monitors.

That was posted in 2008...I am surprised that no one else has seen or mentioned this before now. Not to mention bought one IF it was really out in late '08.

Alienware Curved Monitor Looks Like It's From Another Planet

OK it went on sale in 2009 by NEC as the CRV43. Here is some information on it and unfortunately I can't locate it on NEC's product list right now other than this information.

It is impressive.  But is it impressive enough for you to sell you truck to get it.  I can not even afford one for myself much less getting you one.
