Better add in a couple of hundred bucks for the table that's gonna hold all of those monitors. You might have to do some rewiring -- for the monitors and the extra cooling you'll need. Offsetting that, of course, you shouldn't need any heating. Oh yeah, you'll need an industrial grade chair (with a tray for your keyboard and mouse) so that you can move up and down the line. And the list goes on... Regards, Carroll
