It's not an LCD or a CRT. It's a quad-DLP display with LED backlighting manufactured by Ostendo Technologies (http://www.ostendotech.com/).
Hmm. Right you are. Now why would NEC call it an LCD? That is false advertising as far as I am concerned. Of course, since this display uses Osram LEDs for the backlight, rather than expensive short-lived Halogen bulbs, I doubt that most consumers will care.
Ack, you're right, it's not CRT either. That's just how the division (wrongly) falls in my mind. Thanks!
Umm, no. It's an LCD. That's why it's called an "Ultra-Widescreen LCD Monitor" by NEC. Just because baby's got back doesn't mean baby's got tubes.
I saw one at MacWorld this year. The display quality (brightness, sharpness) weren't up to par.
And, you could see the breaks in the panels.
900px high? No thanks.
Neat concept. $8,000 this year, $500 next year.
"Native Resolution 2880 x 900"
I guess you're not supposed to sit very close to it..
Didn't Alienware demo one of these a while back? Is it the same one?
