I love your tools. Mine also include two printers for my home office: one HP laser jet printer for economy of printing costs, and one HP Business Inkjet 1200 (color/black& white) that does duplex printing. I teach courses locally, and I really use them both a lot. I love the ideal of two monitors...I'll give that one some more thought! Best, ~Kathy Hi, Jason,

The BEST in productivity is in my humble opinion... DUAL MONITORS - Jason said it best... if you don't use two monitors, you haven't tried it and the productivity improvement is great! Bill Gates (yes - the MS Bill Gates) wrote about the use of 2 monitors a few years back. I added mine about 1 yr ago. The other items are great, but I think anyone and everyone will gain immeidate benefit from having dualies to see work. Part I and II – all great advise and i too live by and with most of them.

You got two monitors? That is just slick! :) I think I need that. Anyway I want to share mine: An ACER Emachine: Core Duo2, 4GB RAM, DVD Writer, 6-ion battery, an A4 headset and a 320GB Western Digital External Hard Drive --- This is for my on-the-spot editing. So I could edit my videos even at Starbucks. A Sony SR200 HDD Camcorder (40GB) for my video documentaries with Bluetooth Microphone so even if the speaker is right across the street I could still capture the audio with no problems on my camcorder. A Sony Tripod with remote control for documentary interviews. A Sony DCR-HC42 Mini DV Camcorder as back-up camcorder for my other events. I'm planning to buy a 1TB external hard drive soon. I think you should buy one of those Jason so you could store all your files there and take it anywhere you want. ;) Wow! You got two monitors? That is just slick! :) I think I need that.
