Not sure if I'd like that kind of screen for most types of games. I could see it being very cool for driving and especially flight sims where the panoramic effect would add a lot to the experience. But what about for classic-style adventures that require careful attention to minute details in generally small environments or any other games with purposefully claustrophobic atmosphere?

For business, accounting, e-mail and surfing the web though I would probably prefer one or two flat-panel displays. That's because the physical curvature itself could cause distortion problems when doing certain kinds of graphic design work, displaying large tables, reading large amounts of small text, etc.

Cheers, Terry
