1962 Glass could be Corning's next best seller

Read this article and wanted to post it since it seems shortly those of you with multi monitors or wanting to use Eyefinity will benefit from greatly.



Further down the article it states.
Quote:
Now, the latest trend in TVs could catapult it to a billion-dollar business: Frameless flat-screens that could be mistaken for chic glass artwork on a living-room wall.
Because Gorilla is very hard to break, dent or scratch, Corning is betting it will be the glass of choice as TV-set manufacturers dispense with protective rims or bezels for their sets, in search of an elegant look.

So it appears shortly you'll be seeing TV's and LCD's without Bezels, thus providing a seamless look to multi monitor setups. I just found this might be interesting read for those who want a very cool bexel free multi monitor setup in the future.

Here is an older video on a couple stress tests of Gorilla glass. The original Motorola Droid phone is one device that has Gorilla glass.

I want bezel-less monitors...........

And it would be nice to not worry about scratching or breaking easily.
