Irrelevant, the point was that they are hardly “affordable”; if you’re going to get more than 1 external monitor, viewing angles are going to be a concern, and that leaves IPS as the only viable option.

I’m personally running 3 24” external monitors, and I’m fairly sure that I’d have a viewing angle issue had my panels been TN.

Why are viewing angles concern with a multimonitor setup? Don't you turn every monitor to face you directly, so that the viewing angle is 0?

This is what I do with two 1080p monitors; I don't need IPS at all, since I'm always viewing them close to perpendicular to the screen. Has worked just fine for me the past couple of years.
