Al - MSH would be my pick for the week as there are no others I'm keenly interested in at the moment. Didn't know he picked that one so I will opt out of this week's contest if your rules prohibit more than one person picking the same stock. I'll just pretend I'm svenlar for the week (ggg). May end up playing it in reality come Monday pending where it opens. The stock just entered a nice uptrend I believe. My machine is now up and running. I do have a dual monitor set-up, but I have an ATI card in my machine as it is the only card currently that supports a digital monitor hook-up. Had a Matrox 440 in my old machine and have always been a big fan of their cards. Had to go with ATI (unfortunately) because of the above. Also purchased a KDS Rad-5 LCD to go along with the new machine. Beautiful monitor and if anyone's looking at buying a LCD, KDS is one of the better ones because of the refresh rates (no ghosting on moving images), contrast ratio (300:1), warranty offered (three years), and the fact that the heart of the monitor is made by Radius (I'm a big Mac fan, and Radius monitors have always been thee essential display for Mac machines - had my 20" Radius hooked up to my Mac now for 10 years and it's still going strong producing nice images). Cost on the Rad-5 is currently $538 for anyone who is interested. Spending the rest of the afternoon upgrading the OS to XP - don't ask me how I got it before the roll out this coming week. The XP OS comes a lot closer to the Mac interface then ever before, and will likely make me a huge fan of PC's (and MSFT) from here on in.
