At one point in my life, me, my cousin and my brother all lived under the same roof. We all had our own desktop PCs and eventually when the other two moved out they left behind their heavy CRT monitors and desktop PCs.
Most people would throw them out. However, being frugal and a former geek myself, I took the 3 monitors and put them all on one desk. I then took the video cards out of their PCs and into mine (lucky they were both PCI cards since I had plenty of slots)… and viola!
The things you get around to doing when your xBox dies eh?
I now have a 3 monitor setup. So now I’m going back to using my desktop and ditch the laptop for a bit. Hopefully I’ll get a lot more productive in terms of this blog and other projects.
Here’s a snapshot, note the super dusty keyboard from lack of use. The best part was this new and more productive setup costs me $0. The biggest pain though was finding drivers for these old ass video cards that would work.
