The Sighting: We can't have one of these Alienware curved monitors until the second half of this year, but until then, we've been abducted by its four nearly seamless and sharp screens of DLP goodness. Lit by LEDs, this 2880x900 monster is well over three feet wide and is said to have an other-worldly .02ms response time, great for gaming. The Soylent Green: You can see the seams between this monitor's four segments, but the Alienware humanoids tell us that flaw will be gone by the time this craft lands on Earth. The blacks look a bit washed out to our eyes, too. Price is yet to be determined.

other company's have been making specialty monitors like that for many years.

They have? Link?

EDIT: Do you mean like this? http://digitaltigers.com/zenview_us1-wi ... QAod_VPyqw

If so, Pfft. Not the same.

have to look up in my graphics class notes form 2 years ago. He (Proff) showed us a site with some toys.

I don't think I would like using one. I get the sense the picture would distort due to the curviture?

Depends how it's done. With DLP projection you would need either multiple projectors (this has 4 I think) or a compensation mechanism. If it was OLED (which supports flexibility) it wouldn't be an issue, but those aren't ready for primetime yet in those sizes.
