If you’ve seen Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, you’ll have noticed that he seems to like his Powerbook a whole lot. Debates on Global Warming aside, there’s an interesting photo-essay at Time.com which features — amongst other things — Herr Gore sitting in front of a tri-monitor Apple Cinema Display setup. It’s hard to tell from the image if those are 30-inchers or 23’s (probably the latter), but oh! how wide thy resolution be either way (7680 pixels in a triple 30 setup, and 5760 pixels on the 23). Enough space to have over a half a dozen webpages sitting side-by-side.
(As a small aside, any Mac Pro desktop can drive up to 8 monitors at a time, by adding a couple of NVidia GeForce 7300 GTs. The standard setup — an ATI Radeon X1900 XT — supports dual monitors right out of the box. Geeky little things here.)
