New Windows Vista Gadgets
I’m not a huge fan of gadgets on the desktop. Does not really matter if they are implemented in the operating system or added by using a Widget engine. Placing gadgets on my desktop does not make lots of sense for me. Take a look at the available Gadgets at the Windows Live Gallery and [...]

Everton from Connected Internet posted an article today that has an image of an incredible looking computer monitor lineup.

This computer monitor setup needs special multi-monitor software of course that makes it possible to choose what you display on all the single flat screen monitors.

The speakers seem rather big for this television, you will need lots of free space to place the tv in a room.
