FOAK Large high resolution displays
R C Nesbit
screens on the wall.
This is to run a planning board application - basically an
electronic whiteboard showing Mon to Sun down the left, and
Resources (i.e. Trucks) across the top. Scheduled jobs are
shown in the resulting matrix.
I've had a play with a Panasonic 52" plasma, but as I
expected, you just get a bigger (and less sharp) version
than on a standard 21" LCD monitor.
Font is already only 8pt, so can't drop further.
Any recommendations for a v.large flat panel display with
better than 1080 vertical resolution?

Just a thought, but isn't plasma susceptible to screen burn?

Yes. Really not good for that kind of application.

Multiple tiled "normal" screens.

to go.
If you want more pixel area than 3840 x 1080 , then get four 32" 1080p
screens with nice slim bezels and mount them in portrait rather than
landscape - 4320 x 1920.

As Adrian said but using Samsung monitors, we've just got a pair at work
for two of our canteens for an electronic noticeboard. They're Magicinfo
screens; LCD screens with very slim bezels and have an integrated Win XP
pc in them. Rather pricey at about £2k each for a 42" screen but they
have the advantage of running any windows software and the built in
software and management application makes setting up the tiling easy.

Richersounds are doing Hitachi panels, not a very slim bezel though...

Not as expensive as this:

t=10&page=1
A cool �13,415 (There was one at around �35k but I can't find it again)
Tiling sounds good - and less expensive and fairly easily do-able, so
thanks all for the suggestions.

There's enough small mini-desktop machines with VESA mounts that whether
or not it's built into the display is irrelevant, even if you can't find
some slightly out-of-the-way hidey-hole for the machine itself.
B'sides, would it be straightforward to tile across multiple machines?
Across multiple screens from one machine, sure, using multiple or multi-
headed video cards.
