Delll UltraSharp U2913WM 29" 21:9 Ultra-Widescreen monitor

This is pretty cool. If I didn't already have a U2711 I'd be tempted to pick one of these up. Hell, I'm tempted to pick one of these up anyways. 2560x1080 res is a little less than my current 2560x1440, but the bigger real-estate
should more than make up for it.

Anyone want to buy a slightly used U2711 in perfect condition?wink.gif

I know they are listing the HUD's being cramped in for lower ratio as a con, but if I was using this monitor I would get tired of turning my head or moving my eyes constantly to see whatever info I needed from the hud at the extreme edges.

I'd like to see a better screen at this ratio, or 21:10 really.

Where's the video of someone doing 3 of these? I don't think there's a desk big enough to fit it.

It's the first display I've seen that has the daisy-chain port so it's set up for multiple display configs.

21:9 is a certified ratio for movies (2.39:1) so it makes sense over other odd ratios like 21:10.

To me it's a computer monitor, so those extra pixels on the horizontal plane are essential. It's why I haven't bought that 27" monitor I've been looking at for a while. I want 16:10, high resolution, low refresh time. Cheap prices also help.

I remember dell had this curved rear projection monitor that was supposed to be the greatest thing ever. Haven't seen anything on that in a long time. Apparently a flop. Cool idea but the tech behind it wasn't so great.

Looks nice. I'm still using my dell u3011 for games. Still love it.
