I solved the real estate problem.... Bought a 39 inch 4k resolution monitor for less than 500 bucks. That plus my 30 rotated vertically takes care of this nicely lol..!

However its the software suite that provides rig control, spotting, digital modes, logging, propagation, kitchen sink, fast food order status, etc etc etc is what makes even a modest computer turn into a chuggy drive-thrashing monster. You add any Panadapter software to this mix and you need a modern gaming machine to keep up. I used to only use a netbook in the shack. Then I needed more horsepower for the software. Now I have a desktop with 2 monitors and I still (at times) need more horsepower.
