Toshiba outs Satellite U840W Ultrabook with 14.4-inch, 21:9 display

It's a shame we have to write headlines - we would have invited you to guess what screen size you're looking at on that Ultrabook up there. Alas, though, you can read, and that funky-looking laptop is indeed the Toshiba Satellite U840W (yes, that's "W" for widescreen, and also note that American models from Toshiba tend to tack a 5 on the end, so this could well be the U845W when it reaches the States). Its display measures an unusual 14.4 inches diagonally, which translates to a severe 21:9 aspect ratio (and 1792 x 768 resolution, in this case). All told, it's the first panel of its kind to be used in a PC.
