Just buy a few 20" monitors and connect them up with the correct box. The resolution will be far too high (some 5040 pixels wide) for most graphics configurations though. Most games don't support this type of widescreen, so it's not a very good idea at all, at least not yet.

It was never posted on the Alienware website and there wasn't much news on it. I was searching CES 2009 priviews on youtube and found some CES 2008 stuff.

I guess so. Well, it was new technology then and it hasn't been released to the public yet, so why can't it still be exciting?

Still wondering why it was never posted on the alienware website and why it was never released in the public. Anyone know.

Can't find it, but found an interview on the monitor.
Native resolution: 2880x900.
<.02ms response time
There were lines dividing it into four, but the guys said it was because it was a prototype.
I think I'd rather have a huge 16:9.

All I got was Little Big Planet demos. I check the alienware website's press releases and they didn't even have CES 2008 in it. I checked other blogs and forums, and still no one knows why. There were also no "fires" at CES 2008.
EDIT
I found the estimated price range:

EDIT EDIT
Something offical from Alienware

Something else worth looking at
