[H] 2nd Asus Monitor and dual 2440 x 1440 displays
I'm thinking of adding a second 27-inch panel to my main home rig, in particular, this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009C3M7H0/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8psc=1smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Any thoughts on this? Seems like a good price. Also, I'm currently using a Radeon 6850. It drives a single Asus monitor at 2560 x 1440. I *think* I'm using a display port connection (going by memory) to get this 2560 x 1440. The other connection option have been unable to get the 2560 x 1440. How can I ensure I can drive both 27-inchers at 2560 x 1440? New vid card? Connection type (DVI, HDMI, etc)? Thanks.

As my time to do my own intensive research has gone down, I find myself turning pretty frequently to a website called the Wirecutter for insight into technology buying decisions. They just happen to have a recent piece on 27 inch LCDs: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/a-great-27-inch-lcd-monitor/ I think driving both is a function of what the video card can support. I would like at the Radeon docs and website. On Friday, April 25, 2014, Anthony Q.

[H] Server Question
I know there is no such thing as a stupid question, so I hope you will be gentle. :) I have a good background in desktop computers, but little in server technology. I have tried googling for an answer, but my lack of technical understanding is getting in the way of finding an answer. So, this is the question: Can server technology be used to access multiple computers with multiple disk drives in such a way that the actual location of the file is transparent to the user/client machine? For instance, let's say you have four server computers in a cluster (?) (A, B, C, and D) set up with four disks each (1, 2, 3, and 4) for a total of 16 disk drives. Can a user then request the file xyz.doc from the server and have it automatically retrieve the file from say computer A, drive 2? Thanks for your help with this question.

[H] Hotmail?
What is up with Microsoft Hotmail/Outlook.com? My long old uname/pw creds no longer work; and I get sent to some page that requests a 'security code.' I am clueless how to proceed, but it appears that something will happen on 5/14/14 if I don't do something. Has M$ been hacked? Thanks, Duncan
