My Photoshop window can be larger and I can put all of the tools on the right monitor as well with coding I can have my two windows up one with the code and the other for the design. It makes it so much easier to work on and don't have to do all this switching between windows and moving stuff around to work on.
Why would you do that?

I bet yours is better than mine.
I was desperate and poor, ended up buying a Dell Dimension 2400. 😐 I've upgraded components, but it still sucks. It works as an internet machine, but not much else.

I've upped mine to 1 gig RAM as well. The audio card never bothered me as I've got 5.1 speakers connected and they work perfect with the card.
But how did you upgrade the video card? I thought the video card was built into the motherboard. I was told you have to replace the motherboard before you could do so in the Dimension.
I've added a DVD-R/RW drive, upped it from 40 gigs of HDD to 290, also added a TV Capture card.
