Alienware and NEC has just released their first Curved Design Monitor specificaly for gaming purposes. Both company model design are built at 2880x900 (double WXGA+) panel with a contrast ratio of 10000:1 spreading out at 43 inches wide, USB 2.0 connectivity, a DVI-D and HDMI 1.3 connections, and it provides a 32:10 aspect ratio.

I haven't found any indepth specification on the Alienware version while NEC has officialy released its product specs.

• Seamless curved screen, which eliminates bezel and screen gap issues for increased productivity and decreased frustration (according to Center for Human-Computer Interaction – Shupp et al, presented at Graphics Interface 2006)
• 2880 x 900 double WXGA native resolution
• 200 cd/m² brightness
• 0.02ms Rapid Response
• 10,000:1 contrast ratio
• Wide color gamut with 100% coverage of sRGB and 99.3% coverage of Adobe RGB
• Single link DVI-D and HDMI 1.3 input connectors
• USB 2.0 connectivity for easy use of peripherals
• Front panel controls
• On Screen Display (OSD®) and software-based GUI, which enables advanced display control options

Basing on the NEC's model the only difference that I have found against the Alienware Curved Gaming monitor is that its RR(Rapid Response) in which the Alienware has the edge marking at 0.01ms Rapid Response. Although not that noticable during gaming experience, NEC has made the first move to offer its product to the pc market having a price tag at $7,999. For sure the Alienware model would be more expensive than NEC's product and this products would rock the gaming industry.
