Yesterday I bought two new PCI VGA cards. Finally got my computer setup like it's SUPPOSED to be.


So there you have it. I dropped the JPG quality on the big image to practically nothing so the file wouldn't be TOO huge. Even though it's an extended desktop thing, I usually don't have windows overlapping monitors. The broken up aspect usually makes it hard to tell what's going on. The nice thing is, It only takes one keyboard and mouse to get around to a massive digital desktop.

Forgot to mention ... 4800 x 1200. It's pretty nice I guess. Cost a lot to get it all together though. I'm using an old AGP card - GeForce 256 with 32mb SDRAM (old school) and the two new GeForce2 MX 100 with 32mb of whatever. They were cheap so I bought them. Oddly enough, they don't come close to the GeForce 256 in performance, but they don't have fans so that keeps the noisy computer a little quieter.
 
My my such a showoff :P

You have 3 video cards in your PC! :eek:
Yeah I could have a 4 display PC but I only have 3 screens and the card is an old Matrox G100 with dual, dual head (well you can fit four screens to it).

Holy ****. The desktop I mean! :eek:
 
Ha ha ha ... no.

I am the System Administrator for an advertising agency. It's pretty cushy.

I do play a lot of XBox though, and sometimes at work.

And I suppose you have a pretty good income by the looks of that...
 
Just realized I heavily strayed from the topic.

I shall now proceed to list a few of my favorite current images. I am using an 'active desktop' (html) file to randomly load images as a background for a page with some favorite weblinks. Here are a few of the best images.

So, your wallpaper is constantly changing between images randomly? That would be annoying as all hell.

No, only when the desktop refreshes, which is really rare. Basically when I lock or unlock the computer, or something major happens causing Windows to think there is a need to refresh the desktop. Or when I do it manually I suppose.
