Plans for my daughters PC, lamenting a monitor loss.

Not much news for today, had a long drive for my first job, basic email issues, printer mayhem and user confusion, later I bought a mini PC case for my youngest daughters PC.
I haven’t built a PC with this style case before.

She had been putting up with a Franken build broken laptop with a CRT monitor for 6 months, while her older sister has my redundancy PC (fairly high specs)

I was going to get a cheap Celeron for her, but the $80 more I got a Core2Duo E4500, the rest of the parts needed are laying around from upgrades and experiments, and I have decided 3 monitors was more show than productive, so she gets 1 of my 17” LCD’s.







While I miss the symmetrical layout of the triple screens, 2 monitors is really the point of diminishing returns.


no more 3 screen drooling

No more unfair advantages
