That monitor setup is making me feel all tingly. Legit question: how much would a setup like that cost?

Your comment makes me think you'd like this meme I found the other day

You just need 3 largish televisions, a small TV or monitor for the top, and stuff to mount each screen in that configuration. Your PC doesn't need to be that good unless you are doing something like gaming, just enough to run 4 1080p windows. Once you connect them, it's fairly easy to adjust the configuration in Windows to extend and rotate the monitors to make the setup work. Depending on how you get the televisions (you can buy them used, flat screen 1080p TVs have been popular for a long time and are relatively affordable) and how you decide to mount them, you can build this setup for only a couple hundred

Can you even still buy 1080p televisions?

Can find some great deals at thrift shops if you're not too picky about resolution!

Trying to buy a smallish TV recently for my bedroom and most were hdready ballshit
