Story
This is the cost of "The World's Highest Resolution Seamless Display" which was built for the IdeaFestival held recently in Louisville, Kentucky. For this price, you get 20 networked PCs, each equipped with two graphic cards, and controlling 80 projectors. You also get a screen of 27 feet across by 15 feet tall (8.5 x 4.5 meters) and a special calibration software to synchronize all the video sources. And you'll need to pay the electricity bill: this monster needs 30,000 watts of power to operate. But read more...

anime/gaming marathon on this baby :drool: :drool: Just need my own
portable nuclear reactor.

Someone give me that or an Antonov-225 for my Birthday... or Christmas... or whatever random excuse to give me a gift. Either way I'm happy... and probably in need of garage space afterwards...

*Dear Santa... give me one of these or I'll set up SAM-11s along your route...*
