Impressive at a technical level but realistically, yeah, I really want borders interlaced in my image totally breaking my immersion.

I can see it being put to good use in gaming, much like the CAVE by having each monitor represent a different viewing angle. However, I see it put to better use outside of gaming; which already have now in a smaller scale anyway.

I'd be more than happy with a video card (and host PC) that can handle anything I throw at it, at 1360x768 (or thereabouts).  Plus Xessive is right about the broken-up window into the game world.

Yea I don't really care about the monitor thing. I am just extremely impressed by all that firepower in the new card.

It has to be said that monitors that display 7680x3200 don't really exist. I guess this multiple monitor thing was the only way they could show off the power of the card, what with PC games in a slump. My 8800GTX still kills most games thrown its way, and it is 3 years old.
