Yes, no pricing, though (I'm guessing something breathtaking like about
USD$30,000), and at that size the resolution for print will be a bit
fuzzy:

A standard monitor tipped on its side would do. For print work, you want
very high resolution (200DPI or better) and to make the page life-sized
you'll need to be tipping over at leats a 21" CRT.

Not ViewSonic. Some of their recent models have been... lamentable.
