Wideband Corporation, also popular for their servers and switches, has released a new 3in1 console. The fs[ix] Professional Monitor Console has one 20″ wide screen in the middle, and two 17″ lcds on the sides tilted inward for the maximum coverage.
If your desk looks anything like the one pictured below, than this is the solution for you. With this console there is only one video and power connection. This also means that there will need to be no extra modification to your box. Not even extra video cards.
With the way the console is designed, it will completely engulf your vision. Which would also make it the ultimate gaming monitor. Below is the monitor being used to play a flight simulator. It also comes with software that will allow you to span a image across all three screens to compensate for bezel.
Although this would make a great gaming monitor, it also has it practical uses (not that gaming isn’t practical). How much time have you wasted wading through your open windows or tabs? I know I always have at least 15-20 windows open, being a programmer. You have to have a copy of firefox, project folders, command line, compiler, debugger, the list goes on and on. Wouldn’t it be great if you could have them all open and organized on the different monitors? This console acts as if it was one. You move your mouse to the end of the left screen, and It appears on the middle. So you can have your windows spread out and still have easy access to them.
In conclusion I’m going to say that this is one sweet monitor. From the slick, black metal design, to the user-friendly set-up, this is one monitor I would really like to own.
