World's biggest seamless display. Are you people happy now?

seamless screen

Will you people never be satisfied? Is there no screen big enough to satiate your desire for the largest possible TV? Will you only be happy when your living room is an IMAX theatre? If so, you're one step closer to being content, as a couple computer engineers have developed the world's highest resolution seamless display, measuring a whopping 27 by 15 feet. That huge screen will be packed with 60 million pixels and will be run by 20 networked PCs, sucking up 30,000 watts of power to run. And you thought the PS3 was a power hog! To be honest, if you really want a big TV you should go to that Tokyo racetrack with the worlds biggest HDTV, but that one is made of 35 different segments so doesn't get the "seamless" label that this one does. Somehow I think that if you ended up with it you wouldn't mind. Anyhow, the big seamless display would set you back about $100,000 if you decided to set it up, and that's not counting the electric bill you'd rack up.
