Q. I am about to purchase a larger monitor than my current 17 inch CRT monitor. I would like to change to a 19 or 20 inch LCD. The main use would be for photo editing using adobe photoshop CS and video editing using Adobe elements
A. Well the monitiors that I use with my Mac G5 are from Sams Club. I bought the Samsung Sync Master916v. I set them as a Dual Display setup side by side and they work GREAT. To my knowledge they were less then $300.00 each. Plus they come with a full 1 year return policy from Sams not including the warranty from Samsung..
How do I hook up 2 LCD's for trading in the markets?
Q. Hi, I got 2 brand new LCD monitors. Now I want to hook them up for trading. How do I do this? Am I going to need 2 separate video cards? I want the displays to show different information on each screens - not share a desktop.
My video card doesn't have two video outs. It's about 3 years old. I can't afford a new desktop. Anything I can do with what I already have?
I don't have PCI-E on this desktop, but maybe AGP - have to check. If I don't have PCI-E or AGP, am I needing to fork out some cash for a new desktop? (Major ouch)

A. You need a video card that can support two monitors.
The majority of current video cards out there support dual monitors-- They have two video output jacks, either two DVI, or one DVI / one VGA.
If all you are going to do is run your online trading software, then just get something like this if you have PCI Express: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161219
Or something like this if you have AGP: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102814
With a video card that supports two monitors, all you have to do is go into Display Properties in Windows and set it to run in extended desktop mode, and the two monitors will be able to display different information on each screen.
EDITED TO ADD: If your computer has a PCI Express 16x slot or an AGP slot, you don't need a new computer. Just buy a new video card. Both video cards I linked to for you cost under $100. About what you would pay for a single share of AAPL or IBM. :-D
