Yup, about four or five months ago, the entire company (about 30 of us) got 
new computer and displays. All the techies got 2.8GHz HT-P4 boxes w/a Gig o' 
RAM, dual 19" LCDs, etc., others got 2.4GHz P4s w/a single 21" LCD. We were 
long over-due though, these replaced Pentium III 450 to 600 systems running 
on ancient CRTs. We also moved office spaces to a much nicer Class A 
high-rise, which was also a much smaller space, so it was almost a necessity. 
Dual 19" CRTs just don't fit the layout very well. :-)

I may have to look at one of those myself... We've got a huge pile of DVI 
cables that came with these things...

21" CRT on a Ti4600 for me.

I've been running Linux on one of my nForce2 boards for probably a year now 
without a problem.
