    I'm sure it's to keep the chicks out. With all the marvelous ladies climbing into geek windows at night, it's hard to get some serious work done.


    We say "get a life" to each other, disappointed or jokingly. What we forget, though, is that this is possibly the most destructive advice you can give to a geek.

        These days, with outsourcing and Linux, we know programming is not so lucrative as in the past, but I didn't expect you to earn a living selling monitors, Marc. :rolleyes:

        Sometime I think I'd rather be a salesman than a programmer. But then I remember, I'm not much of a people person. I do a lot of client/server development, and for one client (can you guess?) there's all this hardware hanging on the Ethernet, so I also have a simulator running to help debug all the code. And I frequently have several remote desktop connections up at the same time. :~ Marc VS2005 Tips & Tricks -- contributions welcome!

                  If you are Microsoft that claim is now replaced with, "Hey! I got make a killing don't I?". If this statement confuses you please review current Visual Studio pricing to get acclimated. :)

                                That's odd. I use dual monitors on both laptops without problem. But, hmmm... if, by multiple, you mean more than two video outs on a single machine, I've never tried that configuration. Marc VS2005 Tips & Tricks -- contributions welcome!

                                      It is a candle (if it's the one you mean) Cracker you mean as in "fire cracker"? Or the stuff to eat?
