This pc is mostly used for business research, aka lawnsite:)

There is also a third computer that I don't have a pic of. All three are linked together and share cable modem, printers, and files. Two of the three computers have zip drives, all have cd burners and dvd drives.

How do dual monitors work? What is the purpose? Do you buy a special video card? Can you switch back anbd forth? I'd have way to much fun with a toy like that!!!
Why.. More screen area...can have 2 things up full screen, ect..

How.. Need 2 monitors, 2 video cards (or a dual head card), and thats about it.. ive been doing it for years and in MS XP its simple.
after you install everything the other monitor will show up in the display propertys (right click on desk top, properties) under the settings tab, and you have some options there.
then you can drag windows thru to the other monitor.

I use (2) 19 inch.

you should have pretty good computer to do this and have everything work well..

did i confuse you enuff?
