I was checking this carefully. The 49" Ultra wides are the same as 2 x 27" Monitors. The 34" Monitors were too small for me.
Anyway, update! I received it today. As I knew, it would not work with my 2013 Macbook air because I need a Display Port to Mini DisplayPort cable and I don't have one. I tried my Displayport to HDMI cable but HDMI isn't good enough to get the resolution needed, so it sucked.
My Mac Mini with USB-C is 2 weeks away still.
But anyway, I connected it to my 2016 PC which has an NVidia card (I forget the model #) via Display Port and it worked well. Auto detect the res and screen size, etc. I played with it for about half an hour. Love it. Can't wait to make it my new desktop.
I was worried that despite it being 49", it still looked small. But once I had it on my desk and in front of my dual 27's, I realized that it's actually the same size. The reason it seems smaller is because there is almost no bezel on the sides, top or bottom. My iMacs have a 1 inch bezel on the top and sides, and about 3 inches on the bottom. My Macs seem like together they make a bigger screen, but in reality its the same size.
