The answer to that question, I am sorry to say, is another question. What do you use your monitor for?

 

What Is a 3D Monitor?

As the name implies, a 3D monitor allows you to view things on your screen in 3D. Not a major advantage if you are looking at documents and spreadsheets. (Probably a major disadvantage if you are viewing spreadsheets.) But, if you are a major game player or video watcher, you are talking about a whole new world.

I’m not the biggest gamer, I enjoy playing Backgammon on my phone and can spend hours trying to pop the green pigs on Angry Birds, but otherwise I like living in the real world. That said, even I think the new Nintendo 3DS looks beautiful.

This nifty device, the latest in Nintendo’s range, offers users real 3D graphics; no glasses needed. According to Nintendo, it is a breakthrough in portable entertainment.

Nafisa Akabor agrees. In a review of the new gaming device Akabor reports that the 3D screen is “nothing short of amazing” and that users will get the feeling that they can’t believe what they see.

Gaming: you love it or you hate it. Either way, two of the biggest names in the gaming industry, PlayStation and Nintendo, have taken great leaps forward and in 2011 will be releasing their latest portable gaming devices. Sony has built on the success of its PlayStation Portable (PSP) and come up with the Next Generation Portable (NGP), which it hopes to launch towards the end of the year. Meanwhile, Nintendo has been working on its 3DS, which it hopes will knock the socks off portable gaming addicts.

Matt Peckham (PC World) calls the NGP a feature bonanza; Ben Patterson says it fulfills his “every wish for a next generation PSP” and these are some of the reasons why:

3D is fast becoming the medium of choice for visual content. Its popularity is understandable; it allows for total immersion in a film – you don’t watch it, you experience it. It was only a matter of time before the technology was adapted for home use and now just about every electronics manufacturer in the world is making 3D TVs. Unfortunately, 3D TVs have not taken off as hoped, but that hasn’t deterred the likes of Toshiba, Sony, Samsung and LG from working on ways to improve the 3D TV experience and bring even more 3D to your life.
