I've mentioned to a few people the new setup that I recently engineered with Spud's assistance.
Still, for those that just aren't in the game these days(or at least, not when I'm about), I figured I'd put it here where other people can see and admire.
Bonus points if you can identify which alt is on the screen

Auuugh. The Washout! It BURNS!
I presume the green box is the new one, and the dell the monitor's on is off/powering the screen to the side?
(PS: It's Sylia on screen. Sara's Valk to the side?)

Actually, the Dell is just a monitor stand at the moment -- it doesn't function. The Green Monster is an Alienware box and is powering both monitors on its dual video cards of DOOOOM. It's the big-ass monitor that's the new setup -- until this past weekend, Ops was running off that little regular monitor alone.
Ops, I'm still jealous, by the way.

Thats...a big monitor
. Its awesome that you just use a second screen to do your other stuff while playing CoH *grin* Sadly..us Mortals still have to alt tab out at times.
Hey now! I've already started poking around for a source for the caps I need -- seeing as how I'd really rather not (1) pay Radio Shack prices, or (2) rely on Radio Shack delivery schedules.

That's kinda like how I've set up my rig, just with only a solo 22" LCD. PC tower on left, monitor hight raised with a textboook, Xbox 360 underneath.
As for replacement caps,
sparkfun maybe but in the end they're really a
Digi-key and
Mouser reseller for the elemental passive components.
