PC Tip # 5
Use two monitors. If your computer was a super-winner it came with a two-port graphics card. If not, you may have to purchase one by ATI or nVidia. If you have an extra monitor, great. Or find a good buy on an LCD type monitor at a local store Even Costco and Sam's Club carry them.
You will have to open the case on most Windows computers to install the card. On the iMac you have a video port (but need a converter cable available from Apple).
Why two monitors? convenience, efficiency and ease of use come to mind. With heavy duty programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator or Lightroom the tools and all can be on one monitor while the program is on the other. Or you an keep your browser and emai on one screen and get serious work done on the other. Even using Word with Excel or Access is way easier with two monitors. If you have questions, leave a comment. It really is not hard.
