multi pc question

[tommac]

I have a Pc with Win7 64 and 2.8g Intel core 2 quad processor and 8 mb ram running 4 screens at present which runs fine.
I have a duplicate machine and fancy the same set up---my question is how much broadband width does this take up. I only have a 2 mb connection. Will I be ok.
I am not concerned about saving a millisecond here or there
can you tell I am no tecchie. thanks.

I should add that I am looking at a couple of broker platforms , sharescope etc . I don`t know how strenuous these are.

You'll be fine with a 2mb connection. I run about 6 PCs off the same, never a problem.

Brilliant-thats what I was hoping-thanks. 8 screen set up totally ott but bit of fun

sounds an amazing setup, I do stuff like this for fun as I love the challenges and problem solving it brings. I only have three but across two PC's, but sometimes when I look up from those three screens to the space above I find myself thinking "I can do that again" - then reality costing and the fact I don't NEED it kicks in - one day though!

(tip ref sharescope which starts slow - run it off a ram disk then share the ram disk on network for use on PC2, 3 etc - but to do this you need to write an image before it shuts down and back up once a month just in case)

ok -all done. Picked up the LG screens for £ 30 on ebay. 6 for now as waiting for another 4 x 2 arm to arrive.

then , how can you judge and analyze so much information once there some sudden events , handle well ? :| or you are more sensitive in the marketing by doing that !

I don't react to nor am that interested in 'sudden events', that's how.

Trading the markets doesn't mean you have to watch every stupid tick that comes across the wire.

hahahha that looks ace. I'd do it myself but my relationship would be in trouble.
