I finally was able to replacement my desktop pc and went with dual monitors.
Went with the Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.4ghz from HP.
Have just about everything setup and loaded except for Photoshop.

same as anna I can not see the pic either just a red x in the box thought it might be
something with IE so I tried Firefox and got the same thing no pic.  Oh well it sounds
like a nice system anyway, PS will love using that dual core and you'll love using the dual
monitors with PS.

Thats not good, the photo is hosted at ImageShack, I don't know where else to host it. I don't think I can put in on the sites preview ftp cause its just for cover stuff I think.

Thanks, the new computer was about 1,650 and the second monitor was 250 (I already had one). I ordered a optional upraded video card installed in the new computer that allows to 2 monitors to be connected to one computer, it wasn't hard to hook up. Still figuring out everything that two monitors can do but here is a few, can do PS on one and use internet on the other, or watch a movie or tv on one and internet or other program on the other, and Colleen can do Quicken on one and look at our online financial sites on the other. So far I'm really pleased with the new computer.

Nice set TK. You seem to have a perfect workingplace for covermaking.
I'm thinking of buying a new PC, maybe I'll go for two screens too but I have to measure my desk first. I'm not sure that it will be enough room for them. 
Btw your pic works for me and I'm using FF. |
