Back in the 80's my late friend Hugh Daniel showed off that feature on his Mac by plugging as many monitors side by side into it as he could, then he ran a "ruler" desk accessory and stretched it out horizontally across all the monitors, to measure how wide the were all combined.

He also brilliantly took an old monitor and removed the cathode ray tube, and then took a hires photograph of the inside of the monitor without the tube, and then used that as his screen background! Definitely the coolest most brutalistically realistic skeuomorphic screen background ever, with your windows floating in front of the high voltage electronics inside your monitor.
I don't know why Apple didn't make that the standard default screen background on their transparent iMacs.
