I had & have again a dual drive monitor video card & I could not figure out what I needed it for so the second monitor does not get plugged into the computer anymore. Only I never moved the second monitor off my bench. I did consider adding a TV card but its a cave down here the only other reason I have is if I mounted some camera's outside so I could check out the area.
Anyways I try to do the one thing I am doing well, so no multitasking LoL :>)
Things could change if 3 or 5 monitors could be used to play the games I like & give me an edge :>)
I am back at working with the PIC micro controller again to add a neat option to a LED flashlight, a programable on time so you hit the button the light comes on & you can leave the flashlight there & it would turn itself off. Of course you could set it up to strobe on & off to. This one is going to be ruff as I never used their timer before (better timing) & figure out what the interrupt does (found no address's or labels to jump to). The other new feature I will play with is the flash built in (EEPROM), this way if the power is removed it will remember all the old settings.
BTW does matrox still sell a single video card that will drive 4 monitors ?
