On a serious note, I'd like it if I didn't have to sit so close to it like my TV. But my use for it is to see the details etc.
I think I'd prefer two 27" monitors at an angle from each other instead, and would probably be a lot cheaper.

boh, I don't know, right now I'm working on a dual monitor which total a little bit more than this screen and I don't suffer from AAAAAAAahhhh me back ...
joking, I have no problem with it

29" oh, I thought they were much bigger. Thats a good size for a monitor. I have a 27" iMac and its not a strain at all.

As a monitor, unless that fucker's curved, I wouldn't bother.
Sitting close to a large-ish widescreen monitor as I do here, I already feel there's a weirdness to the perspective - like the rectangular space is too far away in the corners.
Unless you wait for imminent 4k curved genital-fondling tech, I'd just go with three smaller, cheaper monitors and put them next to each other, slightly curved around your viewpoint.

Picked up one of the super mega wide screens last week, it's pretty great.

Those are kinda cool, I guess..
I'm currently using a dual monitor setup but I have one of them rotated 90 degrees so I can have the best of both worlds...hmmm.. it's kinda hard to explain.. let me take a photo of my setup so you guys can see it

long monitors are obsolete compared to long curved monitors..

I wonder if we need to design differently for the new curved trend.. how will a straight line appear for the viewer?
