<0> Hello Sting.
<1> servers and server software has nothin to do with it
<2> road hey
<3> okok
<4> I bet you could do a quad pcix quad agp and dual pci setup
<5> tweek: New systems would be alright.... with Dual mode DVI, you can drive 4 displays, per DVI port.
<2> road hey oick up my 56 tbird friday
<2> pick
<4> that is 4 + 4+2
<5> gpoo: You can't have "Quad AGP". :P
<6> Astro, The CPU would be on the servers, The HArd drives, I woudl think logicallyt the 100 or so lines coming out would come out of a server system which might be 4 feet wife by 8 feet high, as well all the processing and other stuff you would need.
<7> yeah, but 100 monitors...?
<6> But what do I know.
<1> unless you rig some sort of controlling server software for doing something special with the monitor feeds like recording them and shuffling the data around
<4> Astrodog err why not
<4> Astrodog their agp cards that can do 4 displays
<2> kali friday is gonna come slow
<7> quad-mode stuff would seem good for flight sims like X-Plane
<0> `STINGRAY happy B day.
<5> gpoo: The AGP standard doesn't allow for four AGP slots.
<2> road ty
<4> Astrodog no
<7> hook it up with a hella nice rudder/joystick set
<4> a card
<4> that s upport quad display
<3> STING -- but it will be your birthday -- :) and you will be OLDER than I am!! hehehehehe
<4> that is 4 display
<5> Free: The "Tough" part of this is running the video.
<4> tweek I seen that before
<7> yeah, excellent accelerator too
<4> like 6 years ago
<4> with ms sim
<4> game
<4> that airplane sim from microsoft
<4> like boieng jet or so
<4> not war game, but just regular sim
<7> yeah I know
<4> he had 8 displays
<4> or more
<4> it was cool
<7> they used to put 'em out every ****ing year until they figured out that no one bought 'em
<4> but why not just have two 60 inch dell display
<4> or a projector
<5> freetrade: Another option would just be a bunch of PCs. With Linux or FreeBSD, you could have each one drive a display, and logically connect them.
<4> Freemrkts you could hook up a hdmi projector
<5> It'd behave kinda weird, though.
<1> to make a simple example, if you took anyone pc in ehre now, you could give them four extra pci grapjics cards and dual or quad pci-e card or ago card and have like 8 to 10 monitors running on their system
<1> anyone can do it
<4> Freemrkts many big corporation
<4> use dual or quad display
<4> for excel spreadsheet
<4> or stock market program
<4> not just for games
<4> stuff with graphs
<7> ... no
<5> Heh.
<4> yes
<4> it in the ms book
<5> gpoo: That's somewhat usual.
<7> you can use virtual desktops, tabbed stuff, ... whatever
<4> when I took the ms windows cl***
<5> *unusual.
<4> tweek
<7> you don't need a quad-monitor setup unless you're on Wall Street
<4> in ms thier no virtualtab
<4> by defualt
<1> you could rig our won cctv security system with a pc using say 8 monitors recording and 4 webcams to each monitor
<7> and I mean, in the mother****ing NYSE, making trades
<1> cover your entire hosue easy heh
<5> tweek: Well, we use 4x in the oil business to view seismic lines.
<4> Astrodog I new it
<5> Though, I saw some slick 8x systems in Singapore, used for trades, etc.
<7> that's another excellent use - something that requires a very, very large resolution
<5> tweek: Pretty much.
<4> Astrodog do you know how to do this " but then we get they then say intergral from (pi/6 to /sqrt(3) (sec^2(-) -1) "
<7> most civ-eng stuff requires plotter-type resolution
<7> so you're printing it out instead of watching it
<7> having four screens kinda alleviates that
<5> gpoo: Yes... but I hate doing it.
<4> did I say civ eng
<4> I said
<4> stock market
<4> and bussiness people
<5> You said "Big companies" and "Excel".
<4> well
<7> Excel is mainly for failures at life
<7> and managers
<4> some big companies do use excel
<7> who also fall into that category
<4> as in maangers
<4> and ceo
<4> ceo and mangers love excel
<5> Markets certainly use them. People who use excel don't use 4x displays.
<4> Astrodog ceo who use excel sure do
<0> brb phone.
<4> it in the goddam windows 2k book
<4> in part of the cert exam
<7> yep, you're not going to find anyone who uses Excel that uses 4x displays
<5> The CEOs I've worked with don't know how excel works... and don't give a damn, either. :P
<4> sure
<4> they don't
<4> but that why some it guy
<4> programs excel
<4> for him
<5> They have 4x displays, so they can watch porn lifesize at the office at night.
<5> :P
<4> all he just is punch in numbers
<7> so your A+ cert exam tells you that quad displays are good for Excel
<4> tweek no, logic does
<7> ... they find really weird ways to justify technology these days
<8> oops
<7> ... no, that's at the ****ing degree of 'toy'
<4> tweek they said, what other way of using quad display
<4> if not for games
<7> like, a graphic designer might be justified using a 8 1/2" x 11" display
<4> well then you say office work
<4> well they do you have not seen some spread sheet
<7> office work = one screen, simple as that.
<4> they are big
<7> spreadsheets need to be scrolled through anyway
<4> not withs ome spread sheet
<4> not with the type of graph they have
<4> well it in the dam book
<5> Office work sometimes gets 2 screens, so that you can be working on the spreadsheet, and watching something else. But that's about the extent of it.
<4> I apeal to ms publishing
<7> teh dam book is WRONG, sir
<4> as an authority
<5> gpoo: The book is wrong.
<7> you LOSE, GOOD DAY
<4> ms publsihing is wrong
<5> gpoo: Correct.
<7> oh **** yeah they're wrong
<4> I don't apeal to your authority
<7> they're marketing Vista as 'It's time for clarity'
<7> try Vista beta 2 sometime
<4> :)
<4> go to wall st
<4> you will notice
<5> tweek: Clear as mud.
<7> if they don't tone down UAC they *WILL DIE IN A FIRE AND IT WILL BE GORY*
<4> the use of dual display
<7> and if they don't I will make it happen
<4> maybe not anymore since y ou can get a 60 inch dell display
<4> but before the 60 inch dell display
<4> they use dual montiors setup
<4> I am speaking of the 2k ms book
<5> gpoo: I work with oil companies, and markets. I've never seen office drones using dual displays.
<7> like I said, multi-flatpanels make sense in a presentation
<4> windows 2k
<4> read the dam book
