mine is bigger than yours

I have a new computer at uni. It took the computer guy about 3.5 hours to get all my data and settings onto it. I can now do things at a reasonable speed and all my software works again. (This is the important part). It is also sleek and black and shiny and slender with a 19 inch, skinny, flat screen monitor (This is the fun part). Stats are as below. For some reason it seems to have three video cards - according to the computer guy. No idea why.

The three video cards can make things really nifty! You can plug in three more 19 inch monitors and have different windows on each one. Your mouse just hops from one screen to the next as you move your pointer. I have done something here at Cueldee with one extra monitor, and it really makes looking at different sets of data just magic!
