And to clarify, I think that both sick and insane were used here in a positive light

Theres lot of uses for it in the process industry where huge HMI displays is needed to monitor plants processes, or security cameras for that matter, I for one will buy one for fun when it, if it, becomes avalable.

Can make money of the concept!
