iView yo’ momma!

Okay, lame ass joke up there but this iView concept monitor makes no sense to me. What does it do if it’s curved like that? Shield your next cell mate from stealing glances at your porn? I understand it was inspired from the 50’s cinerama screens but there is a reason why that stayed in the 50’s, isn’t it? And then there is a second screen, sizeably smaller, and it made no sense being there at all except that it’s suppose to be “cool”.
It looks futuristic, like something you had seen in Judge Dread: The Movie ages ago and you go “Oooo and Ahhhh” until you see the price tag. I am sure it won’t be cheap being Apple and all. Apparently the extremely thin (and extremely expensive) iMac Air was a fucking disaster because it’s basically a thin layer of plastic and the headphones port don’t work well AND you can only surf the net using Wi-Fi. Pfft…wtf is that?
But that’s just so typical of Apple. All frills and no deals.

Try to work on several monitors one day. I got 3+2 actually on my desk and there is not enough depth to properly wrap them around me so I have to dance left and right all day long.
It’s not because you don’t understand a product that it’s useless…
Do you really need to trollastically splatter your ignorance all over the intarweb ?

Pfft… and you think a curved monitor like that would help your current needs? What if the curved monitor is not even big enough, as obviously it isn’t going to be from what you’re saying. Try putting two of these side by side, eh? I’d like to watch you wave by them like a moron.
btw, it’s “interwebz” not “intarweb”, genius.

yeah, if they are wide enough (over 3000 pixel) 2 of them will beat the 5 I got, so side by side it would definately beat the crap out of my setup. Even the small addon screen seems like genius (if it could be put on top).
And it’s not interwebz, it’s series of tubes…

You make no sense, but it’s the weekends. I guess we’re all entitled to crap like that some time or another.
