I would think there'd be FoV hacks/fixes for it like people made up for games when the Triplehead2Go was at it's prime. Did you take a gander at widescreengamingforums.com to see if the stuff people made worked with the eyefinity setup?

I'm thinking that once a solution is applied to a game, it should be uniform across ultra-widescreen standards as you're just trying to play nice with a resolution change.

You'd be surprised at how quickly you get used to not "seeing" the bezels. For all the action that's always focused on the center monitor, you start to view them like the frame of a car when you turn your head to look out the side windows. You just stop seeing them altogether.

Takes up most of the 6ft desk it's on.


With very little modification I could put the base on the floor, swing the other arm around and have a dual user workstation.

Yea, if you want to bring that rig along it would be 3 seats to cover the space and power requirements.  Also, keep in mind that you'll need to create 3 intranet accounts (intranet.fites.net) and sit each of the accounts down next to each other to reserve your seats.

How do you weigh the rig down?  Is it attached to the table?
