<p>Very cool, that looks awesome for that "in the world" feeling.</p><p>I was looking at a 28" monitor, not sure there though if its just getting too big to see in one glance but looking at this setup it just looks like its going to be so much more immersive so I might well go for it, you've definitely given me some food for thought.</p><p>Actually, thinking about it, the company I work at does edge blending that can be used with LCD projectors, if I can find somewhere big enough to display a 12 foot image I'll have to try setting one up.  Not as practical a setup I think <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
