Hi /comp/
I was wondering about how good rotating LCDs were compared to non-rotating ones, and what kind of possibility they offer, specifically :
-If I can hang the monitors on a wall with some robotic arm and change their orientation and physical positions, I know I'll probably have to change the physical position settings, but the orientation is detected automatically on some LCDs, right? And can I have several physical positionning presets? (Setting 1 : screen 1 up, screen 2 down, etc)
-While it would be awesome for viewing webpages in 1200x3840, how would it work for games and videos (say on a 7600GT)?
-Can I change wallpapers depending on what the current total resolution is?
Ideally, it would be nice to have two wall-suspended rotating widescreen LCDs I can just move around and one moment it's a 3840x1200 setup with a wallpaper of the same size, running office applications all over, and the next it's a 1200x3840 setup viewing a hueg webpage with another wallpaper fitting the resolution.
Am I asking too much for the currently available technology, or is it all possible?
Thanks in advance, I know it's a long read and many questions but I think it's worth knowing.
