Alienware, the far-too-expensive boutique gaming computer company that was acquired by Dell, is showing off this surprisingly attractive (and potentially even useful) curved LCD DLP monitor.

It's over three feet wide and has a resolution of 2,880 by 900 pixels, which could be better, but as a prototype of a product it's pretty nice. I wonder, though, how a curved monitor would work for those who work on graphics or print? Big and flat is probably better. But for gamers it could be very immersive.

Or maybe I just think it's neat because it looks like it should sit on the deck of a starship.
