He had move to a Finnish city to start a game company there, and he was actually a really cool and friendly guy.

is that how you knew it was a dream? 

is it worth setting up a Func_Msgboard group on the new steam community for those of us that use steam? Would be easy to play games against each other etc, just wondered if anyone is interested...

But I didn't make it public when I made it so it's invite only and I don't know how to change it.
Try to add me as a friend or something so I can invite you.

I've added you so just need an invite now :)

Thanks for setting it up :) 

 

pls add me to your leet group

Dunno what happened, but your invite did not work czg, steam said it couldn't find the group even though I was staring at it at the time :)

Go Valve! 

works now. Weird... 

All members can invite other people now, not just me.
So please make this happy and shit.
My computer crashes if I try to do anything but view porn on it so I'm probably not logged on to Steam so often. 

But #tf is elitist enough as it is. Why make a #tf Platinum? 

 

how many people here have them?
do you find, in general, that they are worth the money in terms of productivity?
have you had any problems with them?
anything else you can think of?

atm, i just use the microsoft virtual desktop manager. it's ok, but screws up games when switching and is not always responsive.

since i have a 20" crt, i was thinking of getting a 22" lcd as a secondary. any opinions? 

I have them at work but not at home :-(

Once you get used to using them, there is no going back.

I have never mapped with dual monitors, however, but I have done some programming that way. It is very nice to have the editor up in one window and the program you are working on running in the other.

I would get two of the same LCDs if I were you, though.

That's my $.02. 

I have a large widescreen primary lcd and a normal-aspect smaller lcd off to the right. I work from home mostly doing remote software development and it helps tremendously productivity-wise for that. Since they both have multiple inputs I am able to have dual-monitor setups on both my work dev system and my personal gaming system without using a kvm. It's very nice to watch video fullscreen on the secondary one while surfing on the other. And there's really no way I would even consider multiple monitor setup with CRTs.

Also, my steam id is ray2k, if any of you get friend invites 8-) Looking for an invite to the tf group. 

thanks for releasing some maps guys, just what I need to avoid going to work :)

anyone interested in pics of stuff like macchu picchu or other inca sites for reference/inspiration purposes? I could work re :uploading if anyone's keen. 

Don't mistake unjustified arrogance for elitism... 

Should have invited you.

Dual monitors rock, definetely increase my productivity while at work. Some apps like Maya are just a pain to keep on one monitor what with all the secondary windows. 

yeah, upload the pics if it's not too much trouble! :) 

they're good, I just wish windows handled it better (things like switching a maximized app from one monitor to another is kind of annoying, also dialog boxes sometimes pop up on the wrong screen and stuff like that.) 

i have dual monitor setup at work for 2 years probably. and i'm not sure how i'm gonna work with single monitor now. very comfy for level editing, to have large 3d view on primary display and the rest of the windows (and irc ;) on the second monitor. 

QED, I can't even use HTML tags let alone h4x0r the board!! 

It's very nice to watch video fullscreen on the secondary one while surfing on the other.

Notice how Ray is much more productive with two monitors.

Also, Steamid is Vigil. 

add me! add me!
