   Pretty badass, but I don't think it's being put to it's full potential.

   I think the whole thing would be a bit more interesting if it could display video-wall style giant images. You could map the individual displays to parts of the total virtual space by setting up a digicam so it captures the entire intended 'virtual screen' and then either firing each monitor in turn or firing them in different colors. But then, I just got back from a very wet christmas party.

   I'm going to refer to this the next time I have to convince somebody to get a KVM switch.

   I hate it when you cover up the long space before you get a 4-square piece.

    The backs look like the structures on the side of the Star Destroyer, with cables.
