Giant screens are in, not spending money on crazy stuff is out

Eric Franklin | Oct 09, 2008

With the U.S. economy in the toilet and the world facing increasingly uncertain times, it's good to know that you can still go out and buy an array of twelve 24-inch monitors for US$13,000.

On Wednesday, CineMassive announced the OmegaPlex an "Ultra High Resolution Multimonitor Desktop Display Wall." If you're into world domination, you're probably gonna want one of these. For everyone else, well, that will depend on your salary level and, possibly, your sanity.

For those of you that are interested--you rich, crazy, sociopaths you--CineMassive insists that viewing images on this thing can only be described as "having a personal Imax."

CineMassive sites some notable features:

World's most-advanced, dynamic, high-definition, multiscreen, video-playback technology plays video of any format across the entire array with a single mouse click.

High-performance cooling system ensures whisper-quiet thermal management for 24/7 mission-critical reliability.

Available as-is or combined with a fully customized professional workstation for optimal performance.

Utilizes CineMastery & CineMatrix multimonitor-management software for optimal Windows multiscreen performance.

The OmegaPlex also comes with a premium 3-year warranty and a zero dead-pixel policy.

For those of you sitting around, trying to figure out what to do with that new golden parachute you just floated in on, hey--there are crazier things to spend your money on!

Joking aside, I'd really have a problem watching a movie or playing a game on this thing. I'm sure the image clarity would be great, however with multiple monitors comes multiple bezels. That seems like it would be distracting. With Imax you're looking at one huge screen--or least the impression of one huge screen--but here its 12 connected together.
