I know you're jealous.
I went to CompUAS today with my dad because they were closing with savings up to a amazingly huge 30%.

I got a graphics card at 10% off. My problem was that I was about $10 short in the end, so my dad lent me the money to get it. :) He's so cool.

Why will you be jealous of me? I have a dual-monitor setup finally! It's very nice to have the stuff I don't change much on a monitor off to the side so that I can do other things on the one in front of me. Now I have to get used to remembering where I left iTunes and Windows Live Messenger.

The card I got is marginally good. It's the ATI Radeon X 1300 PRO model. It's got two monitor capability, so that's why I have two, and it's got 256MB onboard memory. It's crossfire capable (ATI's version of nVidia's SLI), even if I can't use it. It's valued at $129.99.

I had to move the flat panel to the DVI port with the adapter because it kept flickering when in dual-monitor mode because the DVI port has priority. Since the flat panel is the one I will look at most and the one games will be playing on, I want it to not flicker. So now it's identifying itself as Monitor 2.

So yeah. I'm going to go try to figure out why my sister can't get into the other accounts on this computer.... I think she broke the one we use just to play games.
