Thanks :)

I'm just getting started though. Hopefully soon each one will have three monitors...

They're nothing too special.

One has an AMD Athlon 64 3800 processor and some crappy 256MB PCI-e video card. The other has an AMD Athlon XP 3200 and a Radeon 9800 Pro video card. Both have 1GB of ram and are running XP Pro (32 bit).

We mostly use them for Live For Speed, and they seem to happily churn out about 90 FPS @ 1024x768x32bit. They also do a decent job of Richard Burns Rally.

I have a feeling that some upgrades will be in order to support the triple-monitor setups though.

Also: If anyone has four 17" monitors that they want to donate to the cause, please let me know!
