Back in the late 90's I had two computers side by side. I could play Civ 2 on one and surf the net on the other, that worked well for maybe 5 years. When I moved out here and had a custom comp built I went to dual monitors on the main comp, I could play a game, surf the net or watch a video, and surf the net on the second comp at the same time.

Fast forward a couple of years to today. I now have 3 monitors on the main computor, I can surf, play Civ 3, and watch videos all on 1 machine. Starting tomorrow Ill have 2 monitors on the second computor. Why? I dont know.

Soon I will also have a Windows Home Server to add into the mix.

when i was a kid, my dad used to watch football game #1 on the big tv, watch football game # 2 on the smaller tv and listen to game #3 on the radio. i was impressed by that and i'm impressed by your ability to sooooo multi task. now, gotta ask, how much bandwith and speed are you getting for this?

I have a 768 DSL connection.

Not sure if that speed test is good or bad.

Maybe ADD is meaning something else...but you might get a kick out of this cafepress site full of ADD slogans.

One of my faves is on page 2:

Hey blue! We live in the most gorgeous place in the world. Turn off all the computers and go outside and get some fresh air. ;)

blue - how about a brisk walk? Or a stroll to admire nature?
