I am a professional internet addict. XD
I can put all my IM windows/buddy lists on one screen; slsk (I am a big big big slsk user, though I lost my files in my last crash and am sending my disk off for recovery), chrome, and any applications I'm running on the other.

My post got deleted due to the server maintenance but i want to ask everybody. would it be a good trade to trade my ATI 4870 + XFX 8800 Ultra for a 768mb GTX 460?

I think it would be a pretty good idea, as the GTX 460 is a great card.
