If you’re looking for a classy way to hide your Plasma, LCD, or projection screen, Vutec has developed a product that will conceal it with a work of art at the touch of a button. Vutec’s ArtScreen operates via a nearly silent motor set within an “elegant” wood picture frame. When you turn your TV off, the ArtScreen lowers down into the picture frame, displaying your choice of a number of contemporary paintings in the Vutec gallery.

Notable additions to Vutec’s painting gallery come from Howard Behrens, the world’s most renowned palette knife artist, and Jim Gerard Holehouse of Tropic Art Design.

Try your hand at designing your own ArtScreen on Vutec’s website.

The Ultimate Desktop: 9X Media’s X-Top

January 28th, 2008 by BallerHouse

X-Top monitor display

If two monitors isn’t enough, 9X Media’s X-Top could be your solution. You may have seen the 3 LCD version of the X-Top on Sidney Pollack’s desk in Entourage last season, but three monitors is just a start with this multi-screen monitor display. The X-Top’s expandable and ergonomic-friendly structure enables thousands of configurations ranging from 1 to 3 rows with 2 to 64 integrated screens. You can configure the screens so they display one image (like the picture above), or you can hook the monitors up so that each displays a different image. The best part about the X-Top is that the screens rotate from landscape to portrait view.

While other multi-screen monitor platforms exist, the X-Top delivers the cleanest looks. 9X Media also makes a Portable Media Center and a Video Wall (pictured in the thumbs). Both should suffice until Panasonic starts production of its Life Wall.
