Thanks for the info.

In my last job I had a laptop with second monitor, was not perfect but it did spoil me. Now at a new job, I am looking for advice on what I should get (desk top) to get the best for the cost!


>>Interested in suggestions to the best dual monitor setup. What would you recommend for graphics card and monitor combinations brands etc.

>Nothing to it. At work and at home I have one video card (at home an nVidia 6600, at work I don't really know what they gave me). It comes with two ports on the same card, for analog and digital monitors. I have two identical flat screens (Sony at work, Dell at home). I keep the same resolution in both monitors and use nVidia provided software to manage it. Windows XP actually does a good job natively on recogninzing and installing two (or more) monitors. We have a few people at work with 3 monitors and they are very happy.
