>$1000 wide screen curved monitors.

You can pay well more than $1k for a curved wide screen, but as a counterpoint Dell 34" widescreen curved monitors are less than half that on their website. Most likely because you're not getting gaming features, HDR, speakers, etc, etc. They're pretty stripped. Even so I purchased one for every employee and myself on my old team, the experience was so good we all bought them at Microcenter for home use too, and still they weren't $1,000.

I'm just pointing this out in case anyone is thinking about getting a curved widescreen. The experience is amazing and it doesn't have to cost $1k.

Not that I'm disputing managers make status purchases and spend stupid money on useless things. That much is as true as it ever was.
