That's just madness. I don't understand why they don't simply stick to 16:10 for computer displays.

It seems like a nice alternative to dual monitors.

Why would I need to fit it on my screen when I get plenty of it in real life?

There's a 'come on your back' joke in there somewhere.

5ms is slow? That allows it to keep up with games running at 200 frames per second.

I agree that it's a weird screen for a PC. A TV would make more sense, but to each their own. I'm sure people will buy it for the novelty.
IMO a PC for entertainment should have 16:9 screens, since that's the default aspect ratio for HDTV and a good aspect ratio for gaming, too. A PC for productivity alone is good with a 16:10. I'm not sure how many 16:10's still remain in production, except for 30" screens.
A screen this wide doesn't really leave room for a second or third screen, but I guess it's ok for someone who wants a single screen they could multitask on. It's not nearly as convenient as two or more physical screens, though.
