    well Poker does not count as a game does it?
    no, but those dirt sticks will kill you!

                    putting multiple monitors on one pc still means you have the computing power of one pc.
                    try multiple pcs.
                    then you will have something.
                    I have seven machines all with their own monitor, all doing differenet things.
                    one has to run windblows so I an use Photoshop.
                    the others Linux or freeBSD.
                    all networked.
                    that is computing power.

                                  The keyboards are called Logitech DiNovo Media Desktop 2.0 (slightly better than the original DiNovo). They are crap (for me, anyway). Overpriced tat. I paid about $300 for the keyboard/mouse/bluetooth hub package. The keyboard is like a useless laptop keyboard, and I make LOTS of typos on it. Really annoying. Looks great though, and it's all wireless. Am nevertheless tempted to replace it with a $10 traditional keyboard for daily practical use. Or hire a typist.

                                  Here's my setup - 23" 1920x1200 overlooking the river in central London:



                                  And I really don't need a second monitor. I have a wall:

                                    For the world I don't know what everybody needs 2 monitors. I have 1 PC 1 Laptop (at the pool) and one Mac for cutting DVD's and stuff.. If I had 2 monitors on all the time I go insane.

                                    I made a decision a few years ago that this bz better run on its own for at least 1 week so I can get away and thankfully it does..

                                              I love having duals, but I'd like to add a second computer and a 3rd monitor. Then run Multiplicity so one box has a single monitor (for video transcoding, etc) and the main box has duals.

                                                    Well....

                                                    For me... I am generaly working on more than one program at a time.
                                                    Custom Client/Server stuff that interacts with the websites as well.

                                                    Try doing that on one monitor...

                                                      I must not be a real webmaster then. I work from my Dell desktop with a 19"tft monitor. I also have another 3 pc's in my office that don't get used, and my Dell laptop.

                                                      Damn... and there I was thinking I was doing good as well.

                                                        try multiple pcs.
                                                        then you will have something.
                                                        I have seven machines all with their own monitor, all doing differenet things.
                                                        one has to run windblows so I an use Photoshop.
                                                        the others Linux or freeBSD.
                                                        all networked.
                                                        that is computing power.
                                                        Well for what I do, that would be a huge pain in the ass...

                                                        I guess it all depends on what your doing......

                                                        This is plenty for me....

                                                        Drive D is a hot swappable USB drive that I can take with me, I have
                                                        a triple display system in Canada for when I get a chance to get home.

                                                            Gone are the days of tweaking you config.sys and autoexec.bat to squeeze every extra byte of memory out of your machine... lol

I did write a plugin to display current daily revenue on that (I always wanted something like that, ever since I was a kid), but I've changed affiliate partners so many times I gave up writing the scrapers to do it

They are crap (for me, anyway). Overpriced tat. I paid about $300 for the keyboard/mouse/bluetooth hub package. The keyboard is like a useless laptop keyboard, and I make LOTS of typos on it. Really annoying. Looks great though, and it's all wireless. Am nevertheless tempted to replace it with a $10 traditional keyboard for daily practical use. Or hire a typist.

                                                                                              does it EVER smell at any point in the procedure?
                                                                                              how often do you need to replace parts?
                                                                                              does it really kick ass?
