Newegg daily email blast. Look at this monitor. Price in email blast says 799 but on site is 1299
Incredible specs, but i can get a 70" 4k led tv for that price.

Is it really hard to make dual monitor wide LCDs? That's the only thing I can think of that makes these over the top expensive.
I can get a decent pair of HD 27" monitors for under $300 ea. Hell 4K it's ridiculously more.

Just got an email from Plex, offering a Lifetime Plex Pass for $75.00. Waiting for a sale finally paid off! Looks like I'm now "all in" on Plex. Can't wait to try it for photo organization.
Damn it, where's mine? I've been waiting on that.
did you not subscribe at all? -

@dashrender This one is curved, 49" monitor @ 144HZ, 1ms lag and 32:9 aspect raio. Beats the pants off your hd 27" monitors in everything.

I'm also not gaming with it - so I don't care!
The other monitors are 16:9 so two of them match the 32:9.. and you can get monitors that match the other specs and I'm willing to bet that they would still be several hundred dollars cheaper for the pair.
Again, my question is - why so expensive? super wide panel = expensive to make?
-
@dashrender I just said why. Curved, 49"144HZ, 1ms are the big reasons. Your monitors are like 90s econobox Chevy, this is a 458 Italia. They are both cars. Also, how bad would it suck watching a movie spread across two monitors? A lot is the answer.

Kids decided to have me read to them during their shower tonight. So I sat on the floor and read. We are on the final Harry Potter book after having a Harry Potter movie marathon day.
