Thanks, I really like it, the only issue I have is legspace to stretch out..

i think three tfts would give me a major migraine lol :heh: are u anywhere near filing the 2 terabytes of space lol

[RoadKill]

I don't get headaches unless I've seriously taken the piss out of my body and dehydrated it to all hell. Never from TFTs.

Well I have 1.12TB of data hashed and shared on DC++, that doesn't include my porn or my backups of stuff, so yeah, I will need more space, but right now it's okay.

Also I have a bunch of downloads to sort out, and of course that doesn't include my personal data, which I'm not going to share, naturally.

madness.

i must be strange cause a tft will give me serious migraines if i stay on it too long :|

[dukkadukka]

*stares in amazement* that is an amazing computer piro! just out of interest why do you need three screens?

[Jordan]

I have two, it annoys me when i have to work at a one TFT/CRT computer. You feel isolated and lack space :P

I have smaller TFT's than Steve though just two 15" Sony ones.

[RoadKill]

*stares in amazement* that is an amazing computer piro! just out of interest why do you need three screens?

Thank you.

It's so handy, it means I don't have to keep switching between programs to see what's going on. I can have 3 things maximised at once and see them all.

So I can watch a movie full screen, chat on IRC, and browse the web all at once, etc..

Needless to say, like Jordan, I feel choked if I have to use one monitor. I love being able to spread my stuff out and not have to keep switching between chat windows for example.
