The arrival of monitors in the 40" size range raised discussions in other threads if there are limits on the size of displays used a monitors. Note that by "use as monitor" there is typically meant scenario of personal, solitary use in a desktop environment. There are arguments the 40" is maximum size in this scenario but there are also opposite claims that size does not matter since bigger displays can be put at a larger distance. In this way, e.g. 130" projector screen can be equally well serving as monitor display as the 40" on a desktop. There are also arguments that 50", 60" displays can be put on the desk and used at larger distance with some head movements. My argument is that typical desktop use means display located in personal space, space which is private (think about such space like when two people are talking standing they keep at certain distance, closer distance is immediately perceived as kind of trespassing).
