Alienware showed off a 42-inch curved DLP rear projection display that makes playing a video game feel like you're watching an IMAX movie (well kinda). Alienware showed of the display for the first time here in Las Vegas at a media event held in conjunction with CES.
Alienware doesn't have a name for display calling it only a seamless curved display. The monitor sports 2880 by 900 resolution with game quality .02ms response time. Look for this display the second half of 2008 when it goes on sale for an undisclosed price.
It's a good thing we'll have to wait, because that will give the Alienware folks time to work out some of the display's kinks such as the visible black seams that make up the monitor's four segments. The wait will also give you time to clean off your desk, because this display is a monster.
What we see in the picture is a monitor that supports resolutions of 2880 x 900 with rear DLP and lighting OLED, and has a time response of 2 milliseconds. Some have suggested that having to detail the monitor live (not in the picture above) can be seen lines of various union panels. In Alienware they say they will put it for sale during the second half of this year, and they didn’t reviled the price yet but it’s most likely that is not within reach of most consumers.
