My HP monitors have a 12mm bezel, which is quite thin, I guess. But there are certain thinner displays.

I'm running Dell 1909w's. Just measured 'em at 14mm so Falcon's HPs beat me.

There's this as well: http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/11/03/lgs-new-lcd-display-has-worlds-thinnest-bezel/

These have actually been out for a while now, not only from LG but Samsung as well. However the panel size is not very conducive for computer gaming. I believe the bezel size is 2mm btw on the Samsung version I mentioned.

Edit: Here's that Sammy version I mentioned: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/sharps-30-screen-display-features-worlds-thinnest-bezel-separa/

These are available in 40" and 46" versions from Samsung.

Looks like they have some nice features built into that monitor setup. First monitor company to really target average multiple screen users?

Coincidentally I have the LG displays with the world thickest bezels. Well, maybe not quite that bad, but they're 25mm. I'd try to strip them, but the risk is too big. If I break one of the monitors, I'd have to get three new ones since I can't get the exact same monitor again.

I overlap them to minimize the damage. But still, yeah, it stinks. I had an LG monitor before as well, and it had 13mm bezels. That would have been so sweet now...
