MAX - multi monitors I run 2 computers An older Compaq Presario PentII 233 Mhz 96 MB RAM running 2 monitors and A newer box I had put together PentII 350Mhz 128MB RAM running 3 monitors. Most important is using Win98 because they support multimonitors configurations so you dont need something like an Appian card. Win98 will pickup any additional video cards. Microsoft site has some stuff on which cards are compatible. I believe it is a good idea to have identical cards. I use ATI Rage Pro all mine (PCI cards) and of course you must have enough PCI slots for the number of monitors you want to run. Some PCs are tricky. My Compaq's factory video card would not be recognized with an extra card. It would only read the second. I had to disable the original and then use 2 new cards to get it running right. I believe this was due to the factory card being built into the motherboard. The only reason for a system slow down is because you tend to run more applications or more charts. However on my older Compaq using only a 56.6k modem I run DBCs data feed tracking 40 stocks in quote windows. 10 indices. 8 5-min charts and a news feed all with no problem. The other PC runs on cable modem and can handle more. In answer to your bringing up extras sites. You just make your first window smaller (restore icon) and open however many additional windows you want open and drag them into whatever areas of the monitors you wish. The desp top settings allow you to create a picture of actual physical layout of your monitors so that your mouse cursor will respond correctly among all desktops. (i think that makes sense) Good Luck MZ
