Because it's a single monitor. I think if utlrawide 38" wouldn't be slightly curved, looking at the far edges might be problematic. I haven't noticed any cons with the screen at all (other than PPI when comparing to a macbook pro). Insanely happy and would recommend it to everyone. Mine's LG 38UC99-W
