We have very limited space and since I have a laptop, I thought I would just break down my desktop. We built both our desktops a few years back. The other day I moved the monitor to my husband’s PC. It’s so nice to have two monitors.
His video graphics card can handle two monitors, so technically I might could move my video card to his computer and have three monitors – if we had a third one. We would need a bigger desk.
So I’ve managed to create a small amount of space by breaking down my computer. Now if I can just find more items to consolidate then we might have room for everything for once.
You can get down to one printer by using an old a/b switch between the computers.
Just the fact that you are reducing/combining is a feat in itself!
i had two monitors on the computer in our college newspaper office, and it made life *so* much easier. i loved it.
Hats off to you…That’s more than I could attempt to do!
You are beyond my technical knowledge! But good for you in freeing up some space. Maybe the next thing you consolidate will be easier-
How I wish I could learn to do things like that. I have an old desktop that doesn’t work. I’m sure the parts can be used to make it into something. You’re amazing!
Ooooh! That’s Farm Town and The Sims 3 right? Two of my addictions!
Dual monitors are the way to go. You realise how useful they are when you move to working on a laptop and try and drag something off to your invisible second screen! I have emails, skype etc.. on one usually and what I’m working on on the other.
I cannot live without dual monitors. I’ve become so dependent on it that I go crazy when I just use my laptop.
Just the fact that you are reducing/combining is a feat in itself!
ok, so. i need to merge 2 computers ( both are towers ). The thing is that i would like them to be merged in a way that let’s them to share the workload; i would like 2 computers to act as if they were one. So if anyone has any info regarding the way of achieving such thing, i would appreciate it alot.
thank you.
