    I'm thinking about hanging it right above my monitors and using it for tv/video games. 800$ though and it's all yours ;)

    1. If you're using it as a tv it would be awesome. Bigscreen tv's don't work so well as monitors. I also think that tv is a little over priced. I saw a 56" plasma in Bestbuy the other day for 4k

    2. I don't actually own a digital camera. I never really have to take pics of anything. I just use my cellphone to take any pics I do need to take.

    3. My printer is the c3140 by hp. I must say I love it. To anyone that is thinking about getting a printer look into it.

    This is almost tempting as the tv is just chilling on my floor next to me. I would use it as a tv but I have a 54" tv in my room and a 65" upstairs. I'm thinking about wall mounting it above the 3 moniters and using it as a tv. If I really want to get rid of it though I will let you know.


    The man speaks the truth. The gave me my account back again and said it was their fault. As for the tv it's a great tv I'm just saying plasmas have a 10,000:1 contrast ratio. The most a lcd has is 5,000:1.


    Nice setup your desk looks relaxing for some reason. Here is my setup.....
    Custom Built PC
    Intel Dual Core 3 ghz
    2gb ddr2 ram
    500gb hard drive - Currently using 10gb of it :)
    Cd Brurner from like 1995 lol. I don't ever use my cdrom I just needed it to install windows and stuff.
    The 2 video cards listed above
    No Digital Camera

    I love my 3 monitors I usually have a firefox open on the left dreamweaver on the right and the ftp program in the middle. I can alter a file upload it and view it in like 1/3 the time.

    What paneling? This is real wood lol doesn it look real? Haha I'm not sure came with the house and I just kept it. To my right I have paneling that looks like bricks. I would show you but I don't have a camera.

    Wow!! This is totally insane..yesterday I just happened to see a news show about multi-tasking and what affect it has on society.

    I'm all about the 2-monitor setup, since I do alot of papers when in school.

    Very informative though, never had the notion to add a 3rd screen. when my sites start growing coin maybe I will..lol

    what effect were they claiming it had?

    Me too but I hate using up my space on the PC so I use Amazon

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=16427261

    I used to have a couple external hard drives by Maxtor and I forget the other and both were shot in a less than six months.. pieces of junk :mad:.

    Using Amazon also protects my data by being offsite and in a more reliable fashion.

    It is relaxing... hard to see out the windows in that pic but the view is of mountains here in the poconos appalachia region of Pennsylvania with all the leaves turning it is pretty spectular.....when its spring & summer its all green lol...

    MTBiker can relate...

    Actually that wood there does look better than the paneling here lol...came with the house as well....never thought I was the paneling liking type...who knew...

    I use the Matrox 450 Dual Head Cars and inside is an ASUS Black Pearl Motherboard :D

    I use EditPlus2 which is a computer language editor so I can edit documents made in just about any language..

    http://www.editplus.com/

    And you can ftp right from the editor. I love convenience :)

    Peace

    Hmm well I'll look it over but Amazons pricing and set up is pretty much inexpensive and allows back up at a snap.

    Thanks for the info :)

    Basically the premise was that we as humans can't possible multitask as effeciently as we think. This is due to the brain's inability to have enough tools to complete various tasks without forgetting one part or another of each particular task.
