Twisted Nematic LCD panels have problems with off-angle viewing. They have particular problems with vertical off-angle viewing - I can't even stand the contrast from one eyeball to the other on my netbook when I rotate the screen orientation - an array of portrait TN screens is non-optimal. The new Eyefinity6 HD5870 card will require Displayport monitors. Since Displayport isn't quite the standard that HDMI is yet, the intersection of the two is rather rare.
